19" Rackmountable fast storage arrays
- by Eruditass
I'm in need of some fast (15+ GB/s write) and somewhat large (50 TB+) storage subsystem with a standard storage interface. I'd prefer something other than Fibre Channel, which admittedly appears to be the most standard interface. RAID 5 is sufficient. What are the cheapest / smallest products from vendors to look at for building this subsystem? I've looked at DDN and TMS so far.
Small: Under 20U
Cheap: Under a million
Edit: I'd really like to cut back costs as much as possible at the expense of capacity. How cheap can these bandwidth requirements be met?
