IBM N6070 Computer Drive User Manual


 
IBM N series offers an innovative thin
provisioning capability to help you
eliminate stranded storage by expand-
ing or contracting LUNs and volumes
by using a common pool of spare
capacity without IT staff intervention.
When more performance or scalability
is required, you can preserve invest-
ments in staff expertise and capital
equipment by installing a more powerful
N series controller that enables you to
keep your data in place and use the
same management tools.
Maximize your resources
IBM N6000 series systems can help
you reduce costs in many aspects of
your storage environment by simplifying
data management and maximizing stor-
age utilization to conserve raw storage,
power, cooling, and data center space.
N6000 systems can help you spend
less time waiting and more time inno-
vating, thanks to high system perform-
ance, fast backup, and recovery, and
rapid cloning of data sets.
Improve your business efficiency
Clients with different storage subsys-
tems in their SAN environments can
now take advantage of the N6000
series Gateway capabilities to help
