The VS7000 storage system from Verari Systems supports the high bandwidth and I/O requirements of demanding enterprise computing and rich media networks, and provides cost-effective and reliable access to large volumes of data. The powerful storage controllers combined with an auto-negotiating 4Gb Fibre Channel architecture enable a heterogeneous environment comprised of clustered and/or standalone servers to access data centrally stored in a VS7000 in an easy, cost effective and reliable manner.

The VS7000 RAID storage system was designed specifically to provide optimal block level and file system performance for highly scalable, open system computing environments, and delivers unsurpassed performance of up to 1600MB per second bandwidth through eight 4Gb channels to the SAN or host servers.

The VS7000 is optimized for High Performance Computing and Rich Media applications. Specifically designed for bandwidth intensive computing environments, the VS7000 breakthrough architecture delivers up to 1.6Gb per second of sustained throughput, with exceptional scalability, reliability and management capabilities. Utilizing the VS7000s 4Gb networking capability and eight host channels, the media and entertainment markets can utilize multiple, simultaneous HD streams of over 320MB per second from a single VS7000 storage system.

The VS7000 reduces cost of ownership and complexity. By utilizing the VS7000 4Gb Fibre Channel networking, applications that traditionally required multiplexed 2Gb Fibre Channel connectivity to deliver a specific level of application bandwidth will now require half as much infrastructure to deliver the same level of bandwidth. Fibre Channel SANs based on the VS7000 utilize simpler fabric designs and exhibit higher overall availability due to the reduced number of parts, thereby reducing the initial acquisition costs as well as the total cost of ownership. Extensive 4Gb, 2Gb and 1Gb Fibre Channel compatibility results in minimal or no impact on existing storage network, protecting your infrastructure investment.

The VS7000 delivers exceptional I/O per-second performance ideally suited for large-scale shared file system implementations and transaction-based applications. It is designed for simultaneous, mixed use of Fibre Channel and SATA drives, and offers comprehensive storage management.
