Nexsan E48VT vs Nexsan E48 and Nexsan E60VT vs Nexsan E60
The Nexsan E48™/E48V™/E48VT™ and the Nexsan E60™/E60V™/E60VT™ are: 4U , rack-mountable RAID storage systems which can hold up to 48 or 60 SATA, SAS, or SSD data disks. The base models of the Nexsan E60™ and Nexsan E48™ use: 3Gb/s SAS for internal communication between the RAID Controllers and hard disks. The V and VT variants use 6Gb/s SAS for internal communication. The VT variants also have a turbo card installed in each RAID Controller which optimizes sequential writes in parity-based RAIDs. There is no upgrade path between the base models and either the V or VT variants. Aside from the difference in internal communication speed and the presence of the turbo card in the VT units, there is no operational difference between the base models and either the V or VT variants. Nexsan E48VT and Nexsan E60VT are available for purchase from Sunstar Company. For addition information please call (800) 663-5523 or contact us online

SAN Storage
A Storage area network, or SAN, is a high-speed network of storage devices that also connects those storage devices with servers. It provides block-level storage that can be accessed by the applications running on any networked servers. SAN storage devices can include tape libraries, and, more commonly, disk-based devices, like RAID hardware. A SAN must be highly […]
