Storwize® V7000 Disk System

Fast, Efficient & Cost-Effective Vitualised Storage

IBM storage virtualisation can transform your business. It enables you to pool your physical storage from multiple network storage devices into what appears to be a single storage device - and it simplifies and automates many of the storage administration tasks.

Early adopters of storage virtualisation have seen real cost savings in hardware, software and storage administration, coupled with huge improvements in utilisation, flexibility and performance.

IBM Storwize® V7000 not only virtualises its internal disks, it can virtualise external storage devices from third party suppliers. This provides enormous flexibility and performance, and it eases migration between different storage platforms. What's more it sets IBM Storwize® V7000 apart from other virtualisation systems.

IBM Storwize® V7000 helps you:

  • Reduce the growth of storage costs
  • Increase the productivity of your storage administrator
  • Improve service levels
  • Reduce the risk of losing data

What's more, Storwize V7000 is easy to use and is designed to offer all the advanced capabilities you need.

SAN Volume Controller
Storwize V7000 utilises IBM System Storage SAN Volume Controller virtualisation technology, proven to help reduce costs on hardware, software and storage administration. In addition, it helps keep your business applications running continuously - you can change your storage infrastructure without downtime. And Storwize automatically allocates storage capacity to the application(s) that need it - so application performance is protected.

Scaleable & Flexible
Unlike many midrange storage systems Storwize is not modular but it is highly scaleable and flexible. You can add up to 9 expansion enclosures to a single control (providing up to 240 TB of capacity). And you can utilise a mix of HDD and SSD drives of varying capacities.

IBM Easy Tier
Storwize V7000 features IBM Easy Tier; system storage software that really is smart and easy to use. Easy Tier extracts value from SSDs, it prioritises their use for the most frequently accessed data.

Enterprise-Class Capabilities
Storwize V7000 provides enterprise-class capabilities for midrange customers. It provides Thin Provisioning for business applications that need to grow dynamically whilst allowing them to consume only the space they are actually using.
