Key Features and Highlights

NCS1856 Series - Key Features

Expertise Wave img Placholder
Leading hardware architecture
The NCS1850 series storage system adopts dual redundant design and A/A working mode (Active-Active Mode), effectively guaranteeing business continuity and enhancing the core competitiveness of enterprises.
Abundant I/O interfaces
Each controller has 2 iSCSI host interfaces, 1 Gigabit Ethernet management network port (shared with IPMI), and 1 Console interface (RJ45 mode, compatible with CISCO standard). It can optionally expand 10Gb iSCSI, or 16Gb FC/8Gb FC back-end disk expansion interface.
Highly reliable Raid technology with multiple verification
Adopt innovative RAID PX technology to provide triple data check technology. When three disks in the same RAID group are damaged at the same time, data is not lost, and the disks are automatically load balanced. When disks in the storage system fails, all normal disks in the disk domain participate in data reconstruction, and only service data is reconstructed. The data reconstruction speed is 20 times faster than that of traditional RAID, which greatly reduces the failure probability of multiple disks.
Innovative architecture to help accelerate enterprise applications
The storage virtualization heterogeneous platform, through the built-in heterogeneous virtualization function of the system, efficiently takes over the storage arrays of other mainstream manufacturers, and integrates them into a unified resource pool to realize the unified and flexible allocation of resources and effectively protect the original investment of users.
The free flow of data between the entire series of devices does not require the help of third-party systems. Through the built-in data mirroring function of the system, the data backup and disaster recovery requirements can be flexibly realized, and the data security can be effectively guaranteed.
The SMB3.0 native protocol of the kernel improves the Windows file access performance to 149% and comprehensively speeds up the transaction processing process.
Easy to manage, comprehensive control of equipment operation status
The NCS1850 series storage management platform can manage multiple models of products in a unified manner, and provides powerful functions such as global topology display, capacity analysis, performance analysis, fault location, and end-to-end business visualization.
Comprehensive and concise GUI management interface and flexible management mode are convenient for customers' daily maintenance and storage expansion.
Provides a variety of fault warning methods, including automatic email warning, SNMP, online fault diagnosis, etc., to facilitate enterprises to control the operating status of equipment in real time.
