Fujitsu has launched a new entry-level disk storage system, the FUJITSU Storage ETERNUS DX60 S3. It’s designed to cost-effectively scale to meet the ever-increasing data management needs of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Sold via Fujitsu’s SELECT partners that provide dedicated customer support, the business-centric system is easy to install, configure, operate and maintain.
Over 85 percent of ETERNUS entry-level storage systems are sold via Fujitsu’s extensive SELECT channel partner network. This new addition completes the latest generation of the comprehensive ETERNUS DX family of disk storage systems. Among its highlights, the ETERNUS DX60 provides faster host interfaces, greater performance, a better price/performance ratio, twice the cache size, and enhanced snapshot and replication functions compared to its predecessor. It also offers improved support of virtualized server environments plus enterprise features such as Thin Provisioning, which are usually found in more expensive, higher-classified systems.
The ETERNUS SF Express storage management suite is also included in the purchase price. It can be upgraded to the full, richly-featured ETERNUS SF version which uses a more predictable controller-based licensing model rather than the more conventional capacity-based model.
