Hello,
so one of our partners suggested us to order a new 3Par SAN for our VMWare infrastructure and HDD based backup
- Datacenter A
- HP 3Par 7200c 56x 900GB SAS 10k SFF 36x 2TB 7.2k LFF 8x 1.92 B cMLC SSD SFF software: application suite for VMware, replication suite, data optimization suite, reporting suite - HP StoreOnce 4900 60TB for backup
- Datacenter B
- HP 3Par 7400c 192 x 1.2TB SAS 10k SFF 108 x 4TB 7.2k LFF 32 x 1.92TB cMLC SSD SFF software: application suite for VMware, replication suite, data optimization suite, reporting suite - HP StoreOnce 4900 60TB for backup
Well, this is the Direct Attached Storage forum. And I like the idea of DAS itself. So, I really like to use DAS for VMWare and for backup.
- Is it possible to reach the same performance with DAS systems as with 3Par?
=> Of course it is
- Is it possible to reach the same performance and feature set with HP DAS? What features won´t work?
- Which DAS system would you recommend?
- Does anyone have a kind of HP DAS configurator I can use for calculating a HP DAS system? (e.g. like the HP networking configurator or an dynamic excel sheet)
