Qsan unveils J300Q Series supports Windows Storage Spaces  

“We are excited to announce our J300Q Series passed the certification from Microsoft because it proves that Qsan is a storage technology leading company along with innovative spirit.” said Mr. JP Chen, the General Manager of Qsan. “Storage Spaces feature delivers sophisticated storage virtualization capabilities that our customers can take advantage of the performance and availability of virtualized storage at a lower price point.”

Storage Spaces is Microsoft’s entry into the rapidly growing storage technology area called Software Defined Storage. By using commodity compute and J300Q DAS enclosures, users can construct their own SDS solution without being locked into proprietary hardware configurations. Users can easily scale a Storage Spaces storage array by cascading more J300Q enclosures, and the performance can be easily ramped up with the addition of SSD hard drives.

Qsan J300Q Series is designed for high availability, non-stop services, applications demanding high throughput, and flexible storage planning with cost-effective for small and medium businesses.
Meanwhile, J300Q Series supports dual active controllers with one 24Gb mini-SAS expansion port for input and one port for cascaded output per controller. A full range of form factors includes 2U 12bays, 3U 16bays, 4U 24bays, and 4U 60bays for high-density deployment. J300Q is the most cost-effective choice for Windows Storage Spaces DAS (direct-attached storage) solution.
