Low-cost, feature-rich storage for outstanding productivity
The Promise VTrak M210p is optimized for organizations deploying small to medium application servers, disk-to-disk backup and direct-attach storage solutions. Dual Ultra 320 SCSI host interface channels offer the ease of management and performance required by companies running popular departmental and back-office applications. The VTrak M210p combines advanced connectivity and storage features -- sophisticated functionality, exceptional performance, rock-solid reliability, and high availability -- with intelligent system design for a very affordable solution.

High storage density for flexibility and economy
The VTrak M210p supports up to 8 off-the-shelf 3.5" SATA 3Gb/s or 1.5Gb/s drives per system in a standard 2U 19" rack space. By taking advantage of unsurpassed capacity of SATA drives, the VTrak system delivers the highest capacity levels available. Multiple VTrak systems can also be daisy chained to deliver massive storage to capacity hungry applications such as disk-to-disk backup, media serving, video surveillance and compliance storage.

RAID 6 Support
RAID 6 is an emerging technology for shared storage systems and high-capacity SATA disk arrays in servers. With double parity coding, intelligent RAID 6 delivers the highest level of reliability and data protection in a cost-effective solution. As the capacity of storage arrays increases, so does the risk of encountering unrecoverable read errors. And such errors always result in data loss during a RAID 5 rebuild. For this reason, RAID 6 can handle double drive failures and thereby provide greater protection against data loss. This dramatically reduces the risk of catastrophic data loss during RAID rebuilds.

WebPAM PROe
The VTrak M210p features an embedded management software, WebPAM PROe, that eliminates the need to install additional software on the network. All VTrak M-Class systems in your network can be configured and monitored through a single, easy-to-manage web-based graphic user interface. The software works through the VTrak system's Ethernet port -- locally, across a LAN, or across an internet connection -- to configure and monitor one or multiple VTrak system(s) and provide error reporting through pop-up messages, event logging, or email notification. The VTrak family also simplifies integration with third-party management applications using industry-standard SNMP protocols.

Storage and server consolidation delivers cost savings
The VTrak M210p incorporates advanced cluster support features such as advanced LUN Mapping and Masking. With support for up to 256 Logical Drives (LUNs) per array and 32 LUNs per physical drive, the M210p delivers a robust, flexible platform for storage and server consolidation and advanced costs savings. By sharing storage resources among multiple servers, users can take advantage of high availability configurations and employ resource sharing for cost effective storage solutions that maximize capacity utilization.
