Coraid EtherDrive Storage couples Ethernet technology with SATA, SAS or SSD hard disk drives, EtherDrive SAN solutions exploit commodity components to deliver affordable, fast SAN solutions.

EtherDrive SAN solutions use the open ATA-over-Ethernet (AoE) lightweight network storage protocol. Simple. Easy to understand. Easy to use. AoE uses Ethernet to transport ATA disk commands without the burden of TCP/IP overhead, thereby enabling disk drives to become AoE devices connected directly to an Ethernet network.

The SR-Series offer minimum storage cost, while the SRX-Series provides maximum performance.

  • 200,000 IOPS per shelf
  • 3,000,000 IOPS (Yes, Million) and up to 200 TB per Rack
  • Starting at under $10 /GB

    For Fault Tolerant and DR Configurations
  • Asynchronous Replication: Coraid's Snap Shadow™ functionality enables snapshots to be copied over the WAN for disaster recovery and other purposes, with no latency impact to the production systems. VSX tracks all metadata and buffers WAN latency.
  • Logical Volume Management: VSX virtualizes physical storage resources, enabling users to build and resize flexible virtual volumes that span multiple storage shelves.
  • Mirroring: VSX supports no-single-point-of-failure (NSPOF) configurations where data can be synchronously replicated to two separate storage arrays
  • Snapshots: VSX delivers block-level data snapshots, enabling rollback of computing environments in case of IT disruptions.
  • Clones: These "writeable snapshots" provide the ultimate in flexibility for copying and branching existing application environments. Clones are popular in test/dev environments where multiple experimental versions are required.
