StoreVault S500

With support for NAS and SAN in one box, ease of use and simple management, the StoreVault S500 delivers unprecedented levels of flexibility, reliability and affordability. Maybe this is your first foray into networked storage; maybe you have direct attached storage that never seems to have capacity where you need it; maybe your shrinking backup window is threatening further growth; in any case, the StoreVault S500 is ready to adapt to your needs as your business grows.

bullet Scales to 6TB but can start at 1TB – grow only as you need it
bullet Consolidates file and block-level storage for better storage utilization
bullet Simple on-the-fly provisioning from a central pool to applications, groups or users
bullet Protects against concurrent disk drive failures without paying for massive redundancy
bullet Dual hot-swap redundant power and cooling
bullet Eliminates the backup window

The StoreVault S500 is designed to allow you to concentrate on growing your business and not worry about your growing storage.

Disk Drives

StoreVault base systems always include a minimum of 4 drives and you may select up to a maximum of 12. Drive capacities must all be identical.
We recommend that any system with 6 or more drives also have a RAID-DP drive. RAID-DP consumes one additional drive for parity but provides significantly more data protection by ensuring that data will not be lost in the event of concurrent failure of 2 disk drives. RAID-DP means that the chances of data loss due to drive failure are ten times lower than with RAID 5, even during a rebuild.

RAID-DP

With conventional RAID, if a more than one drive failure occurs, or if one fails during a rebuild, data is catastrophically lost. Dual Parity RAID (RAID-DP) was developed by NetApp to provide extreme degrees of reliability for the price of one additional drive. Amazingly, a RAID-DP protected system can withstand 2 concurrent disk drive failures without data loss. It is a very good idea to combine RAID-DP with a hot spare to maximize protection with rapid recovery. A RAID-DP drive consumes one additional drive.

For a Hot Spare, remember to count one drive LESS
Data ONTAP StoreVault Edition consumes some system overhead with the following:
  1. 20% of the disk space is reserved for snapshots
  2. The file system has a 10% overhead
  3. RAID has a 5% overhead
  4. 1/9th of each drive sector are used for drive data consistency checking
  5. The root volume includes some system data

Software

iSCSI
The iSCSI protocol allows your StoreVault to function as an IP SAN or to attach directly to as server. All Storevaults include the iSCSI protocol for free. This means that all StoreVaults offer block-level storage (SAN or DAS) in addition to file-level (NAS) storage, enabling you to meet more storage needs with one single device.
CIFS
The Common Internet File System (CIFS) is the protocol that enables file sharing among Windows clients and servers. CIFS is a native Microsoft protocol and is typically included on a StoreVault.
NFS
The Network File System (NFS) is the protocol that enables file sharing for UNIX and Linux machines as well as newer Macintosh systems. The Data ONTAP StoreVault Edition NFS implementation is identical to that found in NetApp’s enterprise-class products and is universally recognized for its high levels of performance. It is not the same as the NFS emulation found on other storage devices.
SnapRestore
Snapshot software can recover individual files quickly and easily, and is included standard on all StoreVaults. But only SnapRestore software can completely restore an entire multi-terabyte volume in seconds. Unique to NetApp products, SnapRestore is useful in cases where large amounts of data are created and destroyed or where the need to revert to past points in time is paramount. Deleted, modified or corrupted accidentally or on purpose, SnapRestore lets you recover massive amounts of data in the blink of en eye. With traditional data recovery technologies, any of these events can cost hours of productivity and significant lost revenue as volumes are painstakingly reconstructed.
