As businesses mature, so does the
amount of data and the value it holds
within the organization. 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 organizations 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.
Easy to deploy and manage
With the majority of small business IT
departments having one or a part-time
administrator and limited time to spend
on data management, the DS3400 can
be easily installed without extensive
knowledge or effort.
