QNAP storage appliances with RisingTide IP Storage software

Monday, February 1, 2010

QNAP is relaunching its lineup of storage appliances "powered by" RisingTide IP Storage software, starting with the TS-659 Pro. RisingTide sets the QNAP TS-659 Pro apart from other IP SANs in performance and features, such as: QNAP

  • VMware Ready® certified iSCSI
  • Failover cluster support
  • Optimized protocol load balancing and failover
  • Flexible multi LUN management (advanced mapping and masking)
  • Secure IP SAN environment deployment
  • Thin provisioning
  • Virtual disk drive (network volume aggregation and scale-out)
  • Superior performance

"The reviewer was taken aback by the performance as well as by the sheer number of features the unit supports. The certification and compatibility for VMware's vSphere4 (ESX 4.0, under iSCSI) was a long time coming, but this really completes the QNAP's missing puzzle in term of its ambitious foray towards the enterprise market. [...] The QNAP TS-659 Pro performed consistently and without any flaws."
