Dell/EMC CX4
Dell announced the fourth-generation Dell/EMC CX family of storage systems with multi-protocol flexibility and massive scalability — doubling the number of drives up to 960 in a single array.
The Dell/EMC CX4 family offers four models that form the foundation of an enterprise storage architecture that is easy to deploy, manage and upgrade.
"Dell and EMC have successfully worked together for nearly eight years to make it easier for customers to simplify, scale and manage storage," said Michael Dell, Dell chairman and CEO.
“Through our combined leadership we will continue to expand solutions to the datacenter, including servers, storage, virtualisation, and a full range of services."
Dell/EMC CX4 storage arrays feature UltraFlex I/O, the latest in I/O technology that gives customers flexibility and control. With UltraFlex I/O, the number of front-end and back-end ports and the network interconnect needed can be customised for an individual user’s needs.
Each of the four CX4 models can be configured with both 4-gigabit Fibre Channel (FC) and 1-gigabit iSCSI ports and, as new technologies emerge, new I/O modules can be added, such as 8-gigabit FC and 10-gigabit Ethernet.
“The immense capabilities of the Dell/EMC CX4 family further demonstrate our commitment to providing leadership storage solutions,” said Kim Ormiston, storage business development manager, Dell South Africa.
“Combined with our recently announced storage advisory services, this is an important step in our mission to simplify IT for customers as technology standards evolve while their capacity needs grow.”
