Designed to enable scaling of storage capacity to meet the needs of a wide range of enterprise-grade storage applications requiring full redundancy, the VDS4607 provides excellent density, capacity, cost/GB, and a reduced footprint for even the largest of today’s most demanding data centers. It enables the expansion of external storage in file, block and object storage format through a standard SAS-4 24Gb/s interface between the JBOD and any standard Host Bus Adapter in a server.

The VDS4607 JBOD enclosure offers best-in-class performance and capacity, space-saving density, and “green” energy efficiency.

The VDS4607 fits into an industry-standard 19” rack / 1 meter deep. Its flexible configuration allows it to be deployed in a variety of applications, including:
