IXsystems Launches TrueNAS M-Series: The Ultimate Storage Solution for Your Business!
At STH, we have a strong community of FreeNAS users who rely on the platform for their personal and SMB operations. And while FreeNAS may be a household name, its commercial counterpart TrueNAS by iXsystems offers even more features and support. In fact, iXsystems has just announced the launch of its latest storage solutions – the TrueNAS M-Series M40 and M50.
Powered by the high-performance Intel Xeon Scalable processors, these groundbreaking systems boast a 4U 24x 3.5″ head unit in a dual-controller design for maximum availability. What sets them apart from previous generations is their advanced networking capabilities, including 100GbE and 32Gb FC options. And the best part? They are Citrix certified, with VMware and Veeam certifications in the works.
The TrueNAS M40 is equipped to handle up to 2PB of raw storage, with the ability to expand up to 144 drives. But what truly sets it apart is its use of ultra-fast non-volatile DIMMs (NVDIMMs) for write cache. This technology, proven to boost ZFS performance, is currently not found in any other storage solutions on the market. In addition, up to 2.4TB of SSDs handle read cache for even faster performance.
The TrueNAS M50 takes it a step further, with support for up to 12x 60GB expansion chassis allowing for up to 744 disks and an impressive 26PB of compressed storage. NVDIMMs for write cache are still present, but the real highlight is the up to 15TB of NVMe read cache, making this system ideal for handling capacities of over 10PB.
But that’s not all. These powerful systems are priced at under $20K USD, making them a cost-effective upgrade from the standard FreeNAS. And with their NVDIMMs and dual controller design, the TrueNAS M-Series offers superior performance and reliability, perfect for businesses and clients who demand the best.
Don’t miss out on the opportunity to harness the power of iXsystems’ TrueNAS M-Series. These game-changing systems will be available in April 2018 through the iXsystems global channel partner network. Upgrade your storage solution today and experience unparalleled performance and support with the TrueNAS M-Series.
