2.5-inch Drive Storage
Optimizes IOPS-per-U while trimming power costs
Traditionally, the small form factor (SFF) 2.5-inch drives are considered as "mobile" or "laptop" drives because of their prevalence in laptop PCs. Concerning their advantage of delivering higher performance density at lower power consumption over 3.5-inch drives, Infortrend leads the market by integrating SFF drives into external RAID storage systems. In a compact 1U enclosure, twelve 2.5-inch hard drives or solid state drives (SSDs) greatly boost application productivity on the basis of up to 50% less energy expenses. To satisfy different service level requirements at optimal cost-efficiency, users are also allowed to flexibly expand capacity using3.5-inch drives. Especially for IOPS-intensive and space-critical environments, Infotrend 2.5-inch drive storage proves an ideal solution to drive substantial business benefits with improved IT efficiency.
