XCubeNXT 5100 Series
Value-Optimized Unified Storage for SMB
Key Benefits
Overview
Modern Simplicity
The XCubeNXT 5100 series is an enterprise-level, dual-active value-optimized unified
storage for SMB. An all-in-one storage with compact architecture that supports
multiple protocols and cross QSAN platforms, it provides vast scale-up power and
reliability for mixed workloads and performance-demanding settings. It is designed for
applications such as virtualization, file sharing, surveillance, or backup. Plus, backed
by a 5-year limited warranty for proven enterprise-grade reliability.
• QSM storage management system
minimizes the learning curve and eases
maintenance through an intuitive GUI
• Fast setup and data can be accessed in
5 minutes after installation
• Multiple protocol support and cross
QSAN platform replication
Dependable Data Experience
• 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
Flexible Expansion
• Dual controller with built-in 4-port 10
GbE (SFP+) and maximum 26 host ports
allows direct connection to multiple
hosts without switches
• Outstanding scale-up capability up to
16.7 PB
• Wake-on-SAS allows you to remotely
power on / off all cascaded XCubeDAS
expansion units for power saving
Flexible I/O Modules and Scale-up Capacity as Needed
Each controller has two host card slots that can be configured as iSCSI, Fibre Channel,
or a mix of both besides built-in 4-port 10 GbE iSCSI (SFP+). As a result, the series
offers great flexibility with built-in 8-port 10 GbE iSCSI (SFP+) and up to 26 host
ports in a dual-controller system. In addition, the XN5126 provides massive scale-up
capabilities by connecting XCubeDAS or 3rd-party expansion units with up to 546 disk
drives or 16.7 PB raw capacity for future data growth.
Virtualization
The XN5100 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.
File Sharing
The XN5100 series is designed for seamless file sharing. Multiple protocol
support enables files to be accessed simultaneously across different
computing environemnts by multiple users anytime, anywhere.
Surveillance
High-definition cameras bring higher bandwidth requirements, increased
write speeds and storage capacity. The XN5100 series meets the
performance requirements of thousands of cameras.
Backup
To protect against data loss and downtime events, QSM provides
complete array-based backup functions including local backup and remote
replication.
Proven Simplicity - "Set and Forget" Data Services
QSM, a storage management system with intuitive GUI designs, helps to save time in
storage deployment considerably. It also delivers unified storage features including
support for a range of multi protocols (CIFS, NFS, FTP*, iSCSi, FCP*, etc.), complete
RAID level protection, RAID EE, thin provisioning, SSD cache, auto-tiering, compression,
inline deduplication, and more. With the help of an intuitive dashboard, managers can
monitor storage status in real time.
Built-in various backup methods such as snapshot, remote replication, rsync, cloud
backup*, etc. to help you complete data backup and data integrity. In addition, a big
leap forward, it can replicate to all QSAN storage platform to thoroughly protect your
assets.
QSM continuously evolves our security level to protect data across storage and
adhere to industry best practices. Supporting SED (Self-Encrypting Drives) coupled
with WORM* will keep your sensitive data safe even if the drives are lost, stolen, or
misplaced. Additionally, Windows ACL (Access Control List) and RBAC (Role-Based
Access Control) helps to prevent unauthorized access to your data.
High Availability and Enterprise Reliability
With the exponential growth of data, simplified management and scalability have
become pivotal to modern IT. The XCubeNXT series provides a complete storage
solution that accelerates data transmission and simplifies the complex management
process from construction to maintenance. Enterprises can focus on value creation
instead of operation management.
* The feature will be available in Q1, 2024.
