The EliteNAS EN436L12DT Intel Dual Port 10GBase-T Edition is a comprehensive feature-dense 4U 36-bay NAS + iSCSI + Fibre Channel (via optional add-on) unified / hybrid storage rackmount with the Intel Quad-Core processor and 8GB DDR-4 ECC memory. The EN436L12DT is a performance tuned NAS + iSCSI + Fibre Channel storage designed with hardware RAID protection and quad Gigabit Ethernet, capable of unlimited clients with network share, and supports in IP SAN storage. Built-in SATA RAID 6 supports up to 96TB of total storage, and an optional SAS expander feature allows expansion of up to 120 drives, using additional EliteSTOR SAS Expander JBOD storage units, making a total of 960TB total storage in a network sharing or iSCSI / FC SAN environment. With both 12G SAS and SATA, the EN436L12DT is capable of fulfilling the most demanding storage needs.
Dual Port 10GBase-T and Hardware RAID Hard Drives Protection EliteNAS is built with simple setup and maintenance features. Installation wizard for easy implementation, convenience web-based management for local or remote configuration, Dual 10GBase-T (10/100/1000/10000, backward compatible with Gigabit Ethernet) network support for teaming or redundant networking. Dedicated hardware RAID support for hard drives storage make the EliteNAS a simple, trouble free unit. Dedicated dual core hardware RAID processor RAID engines support online migration and expansion while offloading complex RAID calculations to improve overall performance. SAS Expander Support for Storage Expansion SAS expander module upgrade kit allows it to connect additional SAS expander JBODs (EliteSTOR ES208X12, ES316X12 or ES424X12), or up to 120 total drives. (Additional Gateway License required) Support 12G SAS or 6G SATA hard drives Support to both high performance 12G SAS hard drives or high capacity, low cost 6G SATA hard drives. Hardware RAID support up to 60 Supports latest RAID levels, including RAID 0, 1, 3, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60 for advanced data protection in large numbers of hard drive deployments. Feature Rich Network Storage - Build-in Snapshot, Folder Replication and iSCSI In comparison to other NAS units in the market, EliteNAS is bundled with many additional advanced features at no additional charge. iSCSI target support for iSCSI applications, iSCSI initiator support for easy future expansion, NAS to NAS folder replication, scheduled or on-demand volume snapshot, and local tape backup support, are just a few of the many features this product offers. iSCSI Support for VMware and Microsoft Hyper-V To take advantage of centralized storage for all virtual machines in VMware ESX or Vsphere, the EN436L12DT can be used as a focal storage point for the VMWare ESX or ESXi server hosting multiple virtual machines. Utilizing the EN436L12DT as an iSCSI target storage system for the VMware ESX/ESXi server, the EN436L12DT is ready for your VMware storage virtualization needs. Microsoft Hyper-V virtualization environment is also supported. With the support of SPC-3, iSCSI can be used in Microsoft Windows Server 2012 or Windows Server 2012 R2 or Windows Server 2016 clustering environment for high-availability applications. Optional NAS to NAS Automatic Active Cluster Mirroring Active Cluster Mirroring (ACM) is optional features used to bind two EliteNAS servers as one, so the data written to both systems simultaneously. At the same time, automatic fail-over will supported in case of primary system is fail. Clients attached to the primary NAS server can be serviced by the secondary server and will not notice the fail-over process when the secondary EliteNAS takes over to provide high availability redundancy. Supported up to 4 units. For more information, please see download our Active Cluster Mirroring Guide. Optional Real time NAS to NAS Replication (AC-SAN-ENASREP) Real time NAS to NAS replication provide is optional features used to provide disaster recovery via LAN or WAN to a secondary unit. Also known as asynchronous replication, real time replication replicate or copy newly written data to secondary unit right away instead of scheduled time, allowing data being backup right away. Optional Storage Capacity via Single Name Space Optional Single Name Space upgrade allow multiple EliteNAS units work as one single volume to provide unlimited capacity increase. Single name space feature allows expansion without any change from the network clients, making it easy upgrade for increasing storage needs. Environmental friendly 80 Plus Platinum level (94%) Redundant Power Supply To provide the most environmental friendly possible, yet protect from power supply failure, for using in data center environment, EliteNAS 12G series are equipped with 80 Plus Platinum level (94%) redundant power supply. Design for Data Center - Remote Monitoring / IPMI for Advance User Build-in with IPMI feature, advance user can now connect to the EliteNAS storage as if they are in front of the unit. IPMI provide next level of service, special deploy for datacenter or remote disaster recovery site. Note: Sans Digital recommends the use of enterprise hard drives when in use with any RAID controller applications. Standard desktop or green desktop drive may not be supported and may compromise RAID system stability and performance. For more information on the difference between RAID and desktop hard drives, please see the Western Digital knowledge base. For a list of compatible RAID Edition SATA hard drives, please CLICK HERE.
