Business Wire
Overland Storage (NASDAQ: OVRL), the trusted global provider of
effortless data management and data protection solutions across the
data lifecycle, today announced the expansion of its SAN product
portfolio with the new SnapSAN S1000, a 2U 12-drive modular SAN
solution that delivers highly available storage services for
business critical applications that require superior performance.
The flexible design of the SnapSAN S1000 enables it to be
customised with single or dual 1GbE or 10 GbE iSCSI, Fibre Channel
or SAS controllers; mix-and-match high performance SAS, enterprise
or green SATA drives in the same chassis; and the ability to
effortlessly scale from 4TB to 120TB by connecting up to four
SnapDisk E1000 storage expansion units.
Featuring a no-single-point-of-failure architecture, the SnapSAN
S1000 is equipped with fully redundant, hot pluggable components
for all major functions including RAID controllers, power supplies,
fan modules, battery backup modules, and SAS JBOD expansion ports.
With online capacity expansion, read/write snapshots, auto drive
spin down, zero-downtime upgrades, as well as superior throughput
and IOPS, the S1000 delivers best-in-class performance making it an
ideal storage platform for cloud storage, SQL, Microsoft Exchange,
file backup, and email storage, as well as virtual server
environments such as VMware and Hyper V.
“Companies today are using a broad spectrum of applications to
run their critical business systems, so a one-size-fits-all
approach to data storage is not ideal for any business. Overland’s
customisable SnapSAN S1000 solution enables businesses to deploy a
system that matches their storage requirements today, while
providing the ability to grow and change as their businesses do,”
said Benjamin Woo, programme vice president, worldwide storage
systems, IDC. “With its focus on full redundancy, power savings and
a modular design, the SnapSAN S10000 is a great solution for
companies with performance- and availability-driven data storage
requirements.”
Features and Benefits
- Modular Design – The modular
design of the SnapSAN S1000 enables companies to create a system
based on current and future data storage requirements. It can be
configured with up to two 1GbE or 10GbE iSCSI, Fibre Channel, or
SAS controllers.
- High Availability – In addition
to providing redundant components, the SnapSAN S1000 offers a dual
controller option for load balancing and failover to ensure that
valuable business data and critical applications are available at
all times.
- Complete Redundancy – Essential
components are fully redundant and hot pluggable including the RAID
controllers, power supplies, fan modules, battery backup modules,
and JBOD expansion with dual SAS controllers.
- High Performance – The SnapSAN
iSCSI configurations deliver superior performance that supports
critical online services including cloud storage, SQL, Microsoft
Exchange, and high-end video surveillance storage solutions.
- Advanced Data Protection – With
advanced RAID level support, read/write snapshots, and support for
Microsoft VSS (Volume Shadow Copy Services), the SnapSAN supports
business continuity and increases backup efficiency while ensuring
application consistency during backup and replication.
- Green Storage Design – SnapSAN
is designed with “green” features for power saving. Power
consumption can be reduced to a minimum with auto disk spin down.
Environmental temperatures are monitored and fan modules are
automatically adjusted as needed.
- Grows with the Business – The
SnapSAN S1000 is a 2U system that can be configured with as little
as 4TB, but seamlessly expands to 120TB utilising SnapDisk E1000
expansion units. Online capacity expansion gives companies the
ability to scale their storage volumes and RAID sets with zero
downtime.

functionality they need to gain a competitive advantage at a cost
they can afford,” said Joe Disher, product marketing manager for
