The 3330 arrays are easy to configure and manage with RAIDar 2.0, our intuitive web based interface which provides storage setup and monitoring without the need for host based software. RAIDar 2.0 saves time with configuration and installation wizards, and a scheduler for snapshots.

Direct Attached Storage - DAS

Dot Hill's SAS attached data storage arrays are easily implemented in a direct-attached storage environments - to either a server or workstation. If this is your preferred configuration, look no further than our SAS (serial-attached SCSI) storage arrays which will allow you to easily and quickly add additional external RAID protected storage. SAS is an easy stepping stone from older SCSI technology or e-SATA and just as easy to use. New 6Gb SAS storage offers high data bandwidth supporting ultra-fast access rates. These systems are ideal solutions for demanding applications.

3000 Family of 6Gb SAS Arrays

NEW! 6Gb SAS storage arrays that provide maximum bandwidth and 260,000 IOPS performance. Just attach these storage arrays to any server with a built-in SAS port to add additional terabytes of storage. With energy saving drive-spin-down, these arrays save energy during off-peak hours.

Dot Hill 3520 - 6Gb SAS Direct Attached Storage Arrays (DAS)

Performance for Clustered Server Environments

The Dot Hill 3520 storage arrays offer exceptional performance in direct attached storage environments, offering 6Gb over 4 lanes of SAS connections, for total throughput of 24Gb per SAS connection, even faster than fibre channel alternatives, and much easier. 6Gb end-to-end delivers the best performance and leverages the latest disk drive technology.
Applications

Video applications - streaming, video-on-demand, high definition imaging, video non-linear editing and post production
Supporting blade server systems for IT and telecom environments where high-speed and high-density, local storage is required
Centralized storage for a server cluster of up to 4 servers, or 2 with redundancy. IT managers can connect directly to servers that have built-in SAS ports, allowing easy expansion of storage to support application growth. With 4 ports, the 3500 storage arrays can create a low cost switchless SAN.

Build a 'Switchless SAN' or Clustered Server Environment

With 4 total ports (4 per controller) the 3520 SAS storage arrays easily attach to multiple servers in clustered server environments or switchless SAN. Commonly, a cluster will be set up with two servers which can fail over to one another and access a single storage unit where LUNs are presented up to both servers. The 3520 arrays with 2 sets of redundant ports (4 total) can support two clusters with two servers each letting users create their own high availability cluster environment.

The 3520 storage systems support mixed SAS, SATA, SSDs and 3Gb and 6Gb SAS drives as a foundation for tiered storage initiatives, with expansion of up to seven JBOD systems. View disk drive options. The 3520 has excellent performance measuring 260,000 IOPS (same sector cache), superior cache protection with EcoStor™, and redundant, hot swappable components.
Data Protection

The 3500 series comes with optional AssuredSnap™ and AssuredCopy™ data protection software. With up to 1000 snapshots capability, they offer necessary protection for business critical applications such as email.

AssuredSnap provides volume snapshot capability, allowing point-in-time copies that can be used to maximize business continuity. In addition, AssuredCopy, creates a full volume copy (vs. a logical volume copy with AssuredSnap) providing additional safeguard against vdisk failure and eliminating application I/O contention when accessing the same data blocks.
First to Market with RAID Support for 6Gb SAS

The Dot Hill 3000 Series is the first RAID solution to feature out-of-the-box support for 6Gb SAS drives. Leveraging the product's 6Gb SAS-enabled mid-plane together with 6Gb SAS drives, customers can achieve improved system throughput that allows faster access to business data. The doubling of system bandwidth makes the 3000 Series ideal for performance-intensive applications. The 3000 Series also features a number of eco-friendly enhancements such as drive-spin-down capability and 595 watt 80 PLUS-rated power supplies for reduced operating costs. The 3520/3530 also include Dot Hill's patented EcoStor™ "green" battery-free alternative for cache memory, which leverages a combination of super capacitors and flash memory that outlast traditional batteries. Business can lower maintenance and disposal costs, and reduce server and application down time associated with battery replacement.

JBOD Expansion Units

Dot Hill offers storage expansion arrays that once attached to one of our fibre channel, iSCSI or SAS storage arrays can create much larger overall storage SANs, controlled by a single RAID controller on the primary storage array. Our storage expansion arrays support both 2.5-inch or 3.5-inch disk technology and feature hotswappable, redundant fans and power to make them easy to maintain. By utilizing a JBOD expansion array, customers can extend their SAN cost effectively – because these arrays do not include a RAID controller unit, they cost less than a full RAID storage array.

2122 Expansion Array

The 2122 is a 2 rackunit (2U) array containing twenty four 2.5-inch disks, and is designed to easily extend a SAN system build on Dot Hill's 2322, 2522 or 2722 storage array.
