IBM System Storage DS5000
New DS5000 enhancements help reduce costs by reducing power per performance by
introducing SSD drives. Also, with the new EXP5060 expansion unit supporting 60 1-TB
SATA drives in a 4 U package, you can see up to a one-third reduction in floor space over
standard enclosures. With the addition of 1 Gbps iSCSI host-attach, you can reduce cost for
less demanding applications and continue providing high performance where necessary by
using the 8 Gbps FC host ports. With DS5000, you get consistent performance from a
smarter design, that simplifies your infrastructure, improves your total cost of ownership
(TCO), and reduces costs.
