Hitachi HNAS-5300, 64GB 8 Node PER Cluster, 32PB 3U NAS

When your business needs to store large volumes of files while keeping data accessible across many users and systems, limited capacity and slow file access can become a serious problem. Hitachi HNAS-5300 is a high-capacity 3U NAS solution designed for demanding enterprise storage needs. With support for up to 8 nodes per cluster, 32PB of addressable capacity, multiple network and storage connections, and support for SMB, NFS, FTP, iSCSI, and S3 (to the Cloud), it gives you a flexible platform for large-scale file and data storage.

Hitachi HNAS-5300 for High-Capacity Enterprise NAS Storage

Managing large file systems becomes harder when storage capacity, user connections, and data access requirements continue to grow. Hitachi HNAS-5300 provides a scalable NAS platform that can support up to 8 nodes per cluster and up to 32PB of addressable capacity. This makes it suitable when you need a large storage environment without relying on multiple separate storage systems.

The system supports up to 500 file systems per cluster and up to 1PB per file system. You can also manage up to 130 billion files per file system, helping support environments with very large numbers of files. With up to 100,000 virtual volumes per cluster and 64 EVS per cluster, the Hitachi HNAS-5300 can support complex storage environments with many users, applications, and workloads.

Benefits

• High storage capacity: Support up to 32PB of addressable capacity for large enterprise data environments.

• Scalable cluster design: Up to 8 nodes per cluster lets you build a larger NAS environment as storage requirements increase.

• Strong file system support: Up to 130 billion files per file system and 1PB maximum file system size support large data collections.

• Flexible connectivity: 6 x 10GbE client access, 4 x 10GbE interconnect ports, and 4 x 16GB FC ports provide multiple connection options.

• Broad protocol support: SMB, NFS, FTP, iSCSI, and S3 (to the Cloud) allow the system to work with different storage and access requirements.

Usages

Hitachi HNAS-5300 can be used for enterprise file storage, large shared file environments, data-intensive applications, and storage systems that need high capacity and many concurrent connections. It can support SMB and NFS file access for users and applications, FTP for file transfers, iSCSI storage access, and S3 (to the Cloud). Its high file system limits make it useful when you need to manage very large numbers of files, while its 20,000 shares and 10,000 exports support large shared-storage environments.
