IBM TotalStorage Enterprise Storage Server

To address the unique requirements of the on demand world, the IBM TotalStorage Enterprise Storage Server® (ESS) helps set new standards for performance, automation, and integration, as well as for capabilities that support continuous data availability. This storage system also supports many advanced copy functions, which can be critical for increasing data availability by providing important disaster recovery and backup protection.

Highly scalable enterprise storage

The ESS Model 800, with an optional turbo feature, is designed to offer the performance, accessibility, security, and reliability needed to support 24x7 operations of the on demand world. Add the flexibility, ease of management, and price/performance that comes standard with the ESS Model 800, and you have both a world-class product, and a low total cost of ownership (TCO) as well.

Mid-range disk systems

The ESS Model 750 includes many of the functions and all the reliability of the ESS Model 800. The ESS Model 750 is designed to provide outstanding price/performance, scaling from 1.1 TB up to 4.6 TB of physical capacity.
