Dot Hill 2332 Premium iSCSI Storage Array (Build a SAN)

Ideal for high IO applications with the simplicity of an iSCSI SAN

The 2332 from Dot Hill Systems serves the growing iSCSI SAN market allowing customers to easily create their own Ethernet-based storage area networks. The powerful 2332 storage systems are scalable, highly reliable, high-performance, and easy to set up and manage. With its high performance and high capacity, Dot Hill 2332 storage systems are used for virtualized storage, file systems, Share Point, MS Exchange, MS SQL, just to name a few applications.

The 2332 features a12-drive array housed in a 2 rackunit (2U) enclosure providing dual 1Gb iSCSI interfaces per controller to 3.5-inch SAS, SATA, or solid state drives. An internal SAS interface supports the expansion of the systems to support growing storage needs. Up to seven JBOD expansion units can be easily added.

Eco-friendly EcoStor™

The 2332 uses super capacitors instead of RAID cache batteries, providing infinite cache backup during a power loss while being environmentally friendly. Using super capacitors eliminates the need for battery maintenance, reducing the total cost of ownership.

Advanced Data Protection Provides Instant Recovery

Is your data essential to your business operations? Then it makes sense to add data protection options - AssuredSnap™ and AssuredCopy™. AssuredSnap™ provides the 2332 storage array with volume snapshot capability allowing point-in-time copies that can be used to maximize business continuity. AssuredCopy™ creates a full volume copy which protects against disk failures. Dot Hill's 'set and forget' scheduler capability gives storage administrators peace of mind, knowing the storage system is automatically taking snapshots and volume copies. Make sure you have the backups that enable quick point-in-time recovery.

Easy Management Tool with Wizards

Dot Hill storage systems are easy to configure and manage with improved RAIDar 2.0, the intuitive Web Based Interface (WBI) which provides storage setup and monitoring without the need for host based software. RAIDar 2.0 contains installation and configuration wizards to make management easy.
