AssuredSAN™ 3900C Series
Maximum Flexibility with hybrid hostsiSCSI and 8Gb Fibre Channel - in One System
The AssuredSAN™ 3920C and 3930C are the base hardware models in the 3900C series, delivering both 8Gb Fibre Channel and 1Gb iSCSI in one hybrid array, which allows maximum flexibility in configuring storage. Combining two host interfaces within the same unit, these arrays enable businesses to leverage both iSCSI and Fibre Channel storage and perform both file and block level storage, easily adapting as needs change with a single unified storage system. The AssuredSAN 3920C features 2.5-inch disk drives and the 3930C features 3.5-inch disk drives.

Try and Buy - on Data Protection and Disaster Recovery Software
AssuredRemote™ software provides the easiest array-to-array remote replication solution available and can be sampled at any time through the free 60-day Try and Buy menu. AssuredRemote uses familiar snapshot technology to take an instant copy and transmit it to a remote site, creating a backup copy. With AssuredRemote, managers can entirely eliminate the cost of creating, transporting and storing vaulted tape copies.
You can also use the Try and Buy feature to implement AssuredSnap™, the volume snapshot capability, and AssuredCopy™, which creates a full volume copy providing additional protection against vdisk failure.
Disk Drive Support
AssuredSANs storage systems come with SAS, SATA, and SSD options and can scale to a total 144 total disk drives in compatible AssuredSAN 3120C/3130C JBOD expansion arrays. Drive support details.
Environmentally Responsible
Utilizing Dot Hill's patented EcoStor™ technology, these systems have completely eliminated cache batteries, using instead super capacitors and flash memory to provide infinite cache backup during a power loss, while being environmentally friendly. The AssuredSAN storage systems also feature drive-spin-down which saves energy by allowing drives to rest when not in use.
Enhanced Performance
AssuredSANs use patented SimulCache™ technology that instantly and simultaneously mirrors cache between RAID controllers, leading to significant performance improvements over traditional implementations.
Storage Made Easy
The AssuredSAN hybrid SAN Arrays are easy to configure and manage with RAIDar 2.0, our intuitive web based interface which provides storage setup and monitoring without the need for host based software. RAIDar 2.0 saves time with configuration and installation wizards, and schedulers for snapshots and replication.
