XCubeSAN 5300 Series
Best Hybrid Performance for Modern Enterprise Applications
Key Benefits
Overview
Outstanding Performance
• Ultra-high performance with 20 GB/s
and 1.8M IOPS
• Outstanding scale-up capability up to
16.7 PB
The XCubeSAN 5300 series is an enterprise-level hybrid flash storage system. The
new standard for enterprise-class storage workloads, it provides extreme simplicity,
scalability, and a balance of performance and price. Ultra-high performance is
designed to be the ideal solution for applications in mission-critical data centers, highperformance computing, virtualization, or media environments.
Dependable Data Experience
Comparable to All-Flash Array Performance
• 99.9999% high availability design with
no single point of failure
• Cache-to-flash to protect cache data in
power outage
• Non-disruptive firmware upgrade
ensures continuous data service with
zero downtime
The XS5300 range of SAN’s includes the industry leading density 2U 26-bay, small
form factor XS5326. QSAN’s host cards allow the XS5300 range to offer great flexibility
with built-in 8-port 10 GbE iSCSI (SFP+) and up to 24 host ports in a dual-controller
system, enabling direct connection to multiple hosts without switches. Additional host
cards include 32 Gb / 16 Gb Fibre Channel and 25 GbE / 10 GbE iSCSI options. With
the ability to deliver 1.8M IOPS and 20 Gb/s throughput, the new QSAN XS5300 can
also deliver low latency like an all-flash array.
Versatile Connectivity
• Each controller with built-in 4-port 10
GbE (SFP+) and maximum 12 host ports
allows direct connection to multiple
hosts without switches
• Optional high-speed 25 GbE iSCSI and
32 Gb Fibre Channel host cards
Modern Simplicity
• XEVO, a flash-based storage
management system, minimizes the
learning curve and eases maintenance
through an intuitive GUI
• Data can be accessed in 5 minutes after
installation
• Wake-on-SAS allows you to remotely
power on / off all cascaded XCubeDAS
expansion units for power saving
Mission-Critical Data Center
The XS5300 series allows 10,000+ customers to access data at the same
time, optimizing the overall application of mission-critical data centers and
enhancing business value.
High-Performance Computing
The XS5300 series provides lightning-fast, highly reliable IT infrastructure
to process, store, and analyze massive amounts of data to meet your
operational needs.
Virtualization
The XS5300 series can deploy multiple virtual machines with high IOPS
and low latency. Even under plenty of real-time access, the virtual machine
servers will not slow down.
Media Editing
The XS5300 series improves the production efficiency of synchronized
media and produces more animations. The workstations will not cause
excessive processing time due to real-time collaboration.

AGILITY SERVICES
QThin
XEVO, a storage management system with intuitive GUI designs, helps to save time
in storage deployment considerably. XEVO also delivers enterprise storage features
including complete RAID level protection, RAID EE with fast rebuild, thin provisioning,
SSD cache, auto-tiering, and more. With the help of an intuitive dashboard and
reporting system, managers can analyze business usage and monitor storage status
in real time.

Reclaim
With the exponential growth of data, fast, stable, and easy to manage have become
the foundation of modern IT. The XCubeSAN series provides a complete storage
solution that accelerates data transmission and simplifies the complex management
process from construction to maintenance. Make enterprises focus on value creation
instead of operation management.
• Dual-Active Design
The XCubeSAN series is a proven high availability SAN storage system with full
redundancy in modular design. Its dual-active architecture and automatic failover /
failback mechanism, enables the system to withstand critical situations.
• Scale-up Solution
The XS5300 provides massive scale-up capabilities by connecting XCubeDAS or 3rdparty expansion units with up to 546 disk drives or 16.7 PB raw capacity for future
data growth.
