IBM announces high capacity storage servers

Anonymous Reader writes “IBM, one of the key leaders in the enterprise server market, annouced two additions to its family of high storage products yesterday.

The IBM TotalStorage DS6000 is a small-and-light version of the servers that features high-end functionality in a small chassis. It is also affordable and has IBM’s hassle free architecture, which will allow system administrators to easily manage the server. The DS6000 is based on the Power chip architecture and is built around the consumer demands. End-consumers will be able to request additional storage space at certain price points. The server has automatic system alerts that will monitor hardware aspects of the server and will warn the consumer should a particular piece of hardware fails to function.”
