Features
  • Robust Data Management
    Every organization is different. The i8500 empowers your organization with a bevy of RAID modes, including RAID 0, 1, 0+1, 3, 5, 6, 10, 30, 50, 60 and JBOD. Choose the configuration that makes the most sense for your network or setup different arrays for different jobs. With the i8500, the choice is yours.
  • Superior Data Protection
    Crucial company data can't be left to chance, which is why the i8500 is built for data security. Choose the optional Battery Backup Module (BBM) and enable the i8500 to safeguard unwritten data even in the event of a power outage. The i8500 even allows up to 32 snapshot versions, letting you easily rollback changes made to the system when the need arises.
  • Ultimate Flexibility and Connectivity
    As your company's needs change, the i8500 can easily change along with it. Online disk roaming gives you the flexibility to install your drives into another i8500 without any data loss. And online volume expansion, migration, auto-rebuilding allow you to add extra storage at any time without service interruptions. What's more, the i8500 supports 32 host cluster connections per volume, allowing it to act as a centralized data storage pool for even large organizations.
  • Blazing System Performance and Speed
    Your business moves fast and so should your data. Equipped with an Intel Xscale IOP CPU and 1GB of DDR RAM, the i8500 not only offers nearly instantaneous system response, but also enables transfer speeds of up to 150MB/s with a single port and 190MB/s with dual ports.
