EMC® CLARiiON® AX150 series disk arrays enable small and medium businesses to consolidate and share storage efficiently among multiple computers. The AX150 is ideal for performing fast, reliable backup to disk. By combining the capabilities of EMC’s renowned CLARiiON RAID architecture and Serial ATA II (SATA II) disks, the CLARiiON AX150 delivers easy-to-use, highly reliable data storage at an affordable price. The CLARiiON AX150 is available in single controller or dual controller models. Both models provide up to 6 terabytes of storage for Windows, Linux, Solaris and NetWare servers directly or through a storage area network (SAN) using high-speed Fibre Channel or iSCSI connections.
The single-controller AX150 is a low-cost, high performance storage array that is well suited for first-time networked storage implementations or for backups to disk.
The single-controller array features 512 MB of controller memory with battery-backed cache to protect you from data loss in the event of a power outage (for up to 96 hours). A second hot-swappable power supply can be added to guard against failure. CLARiiON RAID 5 or RAID 1/0 technology also prevents data loss in the event of a disk drive failure. Two configuration options are available. Using two front-end 2-gigabit Fibre Channel ports, the AX150 single-controller array can support two direct-attached servers or up to ten servers connected through a Fibre Channel SAN switch. Utilizing two 1-gigabit Ethernet front-end ports, the AX150 single-controller array can store data for two direct-attached servers or up to ten servers connected through a Gigabit Ethernet-managed switch via iSCSI (sometimes referred to as an IPSAN). Both configuration options also support two-server clusters for high availability.
