 
BlueStor™ Storage Server
DAS,
iSCSI and NAS storage systems such as JMR's BlueStor™
Storage Server are using open architectures based on industry-standard
networking technologies and new management tools to reduce cost,
making storage area networks a practical solution for today's
increasing storage requirements.
The BlueStor™ Storage Server features 16 hot-swappable
3 Gb/s SAS/SATA disk drive bays, four (N+1 configured) high-velocity
cooling fans, dual 600W (N+1) hot-swappable power supplies,
an internal SAS Expander for single cable connection to a SAS
host controller, and either a high-performance Intel Starlake™
SAS mother board with two dual core 3 GHz Xeon CPUs or mounting
provisions for a similar mother board (Intel and Tyan-AMD versions
available). This Enterprise class product is SES 2.0 compliant
and provides real-time disk activity/failure status for every
drive bay as well as physical user interface controls and indicators
for power and cooling status with visible and audible alarms,
plus front panel “on-off” and “reset”
switches.
The BlueStor™ Storage Server is unique in its modular
design; it uses no cables in the data path, thus minimizing
airflow restrictions and points of failure. Like other
BlueStor™ 3U rackmount products, it uses vertically-mounted
disk drives in lightweight, low-cost, vibration dampening disk
drive canisters for the highest signal integrity and maximized
air flow, resulting in lower drive temperatures.
The Storage Server is available complete with a modern Intel
Starlake SAS mother board, two dual-core 3 GHz Xeon CPUs and
memory as model RS3UD. It is also available as above but
without the mother board and its components, Intel-ready as
model RS3UD-NMB-I; or as above without the mother board and
its components, Tyan/AMD-ready as model RS3UD-NMB-T. All
models include N+1 power and cooling, SAS Expander, 16-drive
SAS/SATA backplane and 16 disk drive canisters, plus rack mounting
kit.
Businesses today are facing data storage requirements that are
fast exceeding their existing storage capacity. In the past,
high equipment and operations costs associated with proprietary
technologies have put SANs beyond the budget of many small and
mid-sized companies. Today, however, the total cost of ownership
(TCO) equation is changing.
