Dell EqualLogic™ PS6500 Series arrays are designed to meet the performance and availability needs of virtualization environments in medium to large enterprises. These virtualized iSCSI storage area networks (SANs) combine intelligence and automation with fault tolerance to provide simplified administration, rapid deployment, enterprise performance and reliability, and seamless scalability.
EqualLogic PS Series virtualized SANs enable cost-effective enterprise storage solutions for virtualized server environments. PS Series arrays come complete with a comprehensive set of advanced data protection and management software, with no additional software licensing cost. Providing similar benefits for load-balancing and seamless growth as virtualized servers, EqualLogic SANs have a patented virtualized peer storage architecture. EqualLogic arrays in a SAN work together to dynamically manage and move data, load balance across system resources, and expand online to meet growing storage needs. This virtualized modular storage architecture scales performance with capacity. This enables IT managers to meet the needs of growing virtualization deployments by purchasing only the storage that is needed, when it is needed.
