As businesses mature, so does the amount of data and the value it holds within the organisation. If the data is distributed across servers and individual storage systems, the business will face increased cost, complexity and the accompanying business risks.
The IBM System Storage™ DS3400 leads the way for these organisations to take advantage of consolidating and sharing this data within a direct-attach or SAN solution. The DS3400 offers the opportunity to meet the demands of data expansion, data availability and flexibility in a simple, affordable disk system.
Select configurations of the DS3400 are part of the IBM Express Portfolio™, designed and priced to meet the needs of mid-sized businesses. The Express models combine the DS3400 storage system with the Fibre Channel cables and SFP Transceivers to help you get started with storage quickly.
