SAN environments can now
take advantage of the N6000

becoming the norm. It calls for net­
worked storage systems that you can
use to consolidate diverse data sets
and unlock the full potential of virtual­
ized servers.
Now you can simultaneously meet your
diverse needs—SAN and NAS, primary
and secondary storage—and provide
high levels of application availability for
your critical business operations to
technical applications. With IBM N6000
series systems, you get outstanding
value: our flexible systems offer excel­
lent performance and impressive scala­
bility at a low total cost of ownership.
