Lenovo Storage S3200
Extreme performance and versatility
Features and Performance
The Lenovo Storage S3200 is a feature-rich, high-performing
mid-range SAN ready for demanding workloads for any environment. Offering multi-protocol configurations and intelligent
real-time tiering, the S3200 can provide near All-Flash-Array (AFA)
performance, up to 120,000 IOPS, at a fraction of the cost.
Along with extreme performance, the S3200 provides an
easy-to-use GUI, thin provisioning, Virtual Snapshots, Flash
Cache, Virtualized Storage, Rapid RAID Rebuild, asynchronous
replication, and more. By combining high performance and
incredible features, the S3200 is the perfect mid-range SAN
to support your business needs.
multi-protocol connection allows the S3200 to use both FC and
iSCSI at the same time. Along with flexible fabric choices, the
S3200 supports up to 192 drives and virtualizes pooled storage
across multiple drive types, which improves I/O. This combination
of flexibility and virtualizing storage across the array keeps performance high and integration into your environment easy.
Business Optimized
The S3200 is a unique SAN product designed to provide
you what you want, high-performance, flexible configurations,
and dependability all at a low price. Built to be always on with
99.999 percent availability and multi-pathing, your company can
depend on the S3200. Configured with dual controllers, redundant power supplies and hot swap drives and fans, your data
is available when you need it. As your storage needs grow,
the S3200 scales out with thin provisioning allowing your array
to grow with you. No matter if you are a large enterprise or a
small business and need a simple, flexible, and optimized midrange SAN, the Lenovo S3200 is the right choice to support
your data needs.

Asynchronous Replication
●
Automatically moves data to higher performing drives to significantly increase performance
●
Easy-to-use GUI makes complex administrative tasks simple
●
Rapid RAID Rebuild – Only rebuilds the stripes that contain data, not the space or other stripes. This significantly
decreases the time it takes to recover lost data.
●
Virtual Storage allows “pooled” storage across multiple drive types, improving I/O by 2.5x without impacting
applications
●
Delivers priority access to “hot” data in SSD cache, increasing cache capacity by 200x
●
Each snapshot is an equal volume and supports full read/writes and can be standalone or nested
●
Provision volumes independent of physical storage. Only purchase the storage you need and add more as you grow.
●
Simplify your drives, the S3200 has the same common drives as the Lenovo Storage E1012 and E1024.
●
Utilize both 16Gbps Fibre Channel and 10Gbps iSCSI fabrics at the same time
●
Keep your data locked down with 256-bit AES encryption
●
Hot-swap dual controllers, redundant PSU, hot swappable HDDs and fans, automatic failover, multi-path support, and
data protection keep your data always available, built to be 99.999% available.
●
No need to change or manage batteries, the battery-less cache backup provides plenty of power to transport your
cache data to flash storage in case of a power outage.
●
Provides instant cache mirroring with faster mirrored writes than competitive architectures.
●
With support for up to seven expansion enclosures, E1012, supports up to 12 x 3.5-inch drives, and E1024, supports
