BlueStor™ PCIe RAID With PeSAN™ Technology
NEW!!! BlueStor™ PeSAN Storage Arrays with PCI-E Internal
Switches The first direct-attached PCI storage available, BlueStor™
with PeSAN™ Technology is changing the way large storage
arrays are scaled. Using disruptive technology covered under
U.S. Patent 7,000,037 PeSAN™ is the result of more than
five years of active development and can now be easily deployed
using the BlueStor™ Storage Server or any high performance
PCI Express (PCIe) server.
Each PeSAN™ 3U rackmount storage shelf is a self-contained
RAID subsystem using an internal high-performance, low-cost
SAS RAID controller that plugs directly into the BlueStor™
PCIe slot in a removable I-O module. Using just 16 disk drives
yields IOPS over 1 GB/s when connected to a host PCIe x4 or
x8 slot. The PeSAN™ is supplied standard with a PCIe “external”
adapter card which simply allows attachment of an external PCIe
cable to a host server’s PCI Express bus.
By eliminating the requirement for a bridge conversion of parallel
to serial bus technologies and using a serial bus all the way
through from the host PCI bus to the disk drives, BlueStor™
provides the highest performance, widest-bandwidth storage in
the industry at very low cost per GB. The elimination of bridges,
and avoiding (parallel) SCSI, FibreChannel, Infiniband or other
technologies requiring costly cables or switches yields high
performance with fewer and lower-cost components.
BlueStor™ with PeSAN™ technology is expandable to
256 PCIe devices (4,096 disk drives) without performance degradation,
using BlueStor™ PCIe Switches.
Like other BlueStor™ 3U rackmounts, this product is unique,
using lightweight, low-cost high-technology resin disk canisters
having integrated light pipes, latching handles and EMI shields
– all interchangeable with other BlueStor™ units
for easy maintenance and low spares cost. In fact, all FRUs
including the hot-swappable blower modules and power supplies
are interchangeable with the BlueStor™ 16-bay SAS Expander,
and any SAS Expander may be field upgraded to PeSAN™ by
replacing one plug-in module.
The PeSAN™ 3U rackmount is available as model PSAN-JS,
PSAN-RS, PSAN-JS-8 or PSAN-RS-8.
The PCIe technology roadmap is clear and robust. Jump on the
Blue Line and ride to the highest performance storage technology
available.
