VTrak Jx30 Series

Robust, high-availability 6G SAS JBOD Storage Expansion Platform
with Single or Dual I/O modules

As the demands for capacity expansion of digital media continues to explode, IT

infrastructures and its growing complexities have become increasingly difcult to

manage. With no end in sight of this storage boom, IT administrators are faced

Jx30 Series

6G SAS / SATA JBOD Storage Expansion Platform

with nding a robust storage expansion platform to serve as a building block
to provide high-availability, exibility and energy-efciency in a cost effective
package that meets their application demands.

Delivering a reliable enterprise-level storage architecture

The VTrak Jx30 series 6G SAS subsystems deliver a high performance SAS

solution with advanced enterprise level reliability and functionality. Delivered in

a Storage Bridge Bay (SBB) 2.0 compliant package, the Jx30 series offers the full
redundancy that is expected of an enterprise solution. Dual active-active JBOD
I/O modules allow for redundant data paths to ensure data availability while

dual power supplies and cooling fans are in place to minimize downtime and any
disruption to business continuity.

6G SAS Performance

Providing up to 24Gb/s of bandwidth over the external multilane 6G SAS host
interface, the VTrak Jx30 series allows storage applications to access their
data at blistering speeds. The 6G SAS architecture paves the way for immense
available bandwidth to support the ood of unstructured data now owing
across networks today. Fully backward compatible with 3G SAS/SATA devices,
users have the ability to deploy 3G and 6G SAS/SATA hard drives and solid state
devices (SSD) in the Jx30 series.

GreenRAID

Promise cares about the environment. VTrak products utilize environmentally
friendly production methods and materials as well as a high-efciency design
that saves energy. Sporting 80 Plus Bronze Certied power supplies offering
up to 85% power efciency, the VTrak Jx30 series products improve total

cost of ownership by conserving power, reducing heat output and improving

cooling costs. The internal 6G SAS expander-based architecture also allows

for transparent access to each drive, enabling full utilization of the power
management features built into modern hard drives.

Service and Support

Every VTrak Jx30 subsystem is backed by the Promise 3-Year limited warranty
with 24/7 (Americas & EMEA) telephone and email support. In addition to our

industry leading warranty, Promise offers extended warranty and onsite parts

replacement options with service levels with response times as low as 4 hours.
