Promise Technology VTrak E610fD F40000000000034 Leaflet

The Promise VTrak E-Class is a family of intelligent, dual controller, SAS/SATA based storage 
arrays that fundamentally changes storage economics from purchase and set up to operation 
and upgrades. Dual 4Gb Fibre Channel (FC) host interface ports per controller provide 
connectivity into widely deployed Fibre Channel storage networks, perfect for supplementing 
existing or building new storage networks. Each standard 3U 19” rack unit supports up to 16 
off-the-shelf 3.5” SAS or SATA 3Gb/s drives.  Attach up to four cascaded SAS JBODs to deliver 
over 80 bays of networked storage.

SAN technology has revolutionized the way data moves throughout the enterprise. VTrak 
E-Class joins this revolution by exceeding the performance and bandwidth requirements of 
even the most data intensive applications. Fibre channel’s flexible, mature technology and wide 
interoperability makes it the first choice for mission critical applications. 

This enterprise-class, cable-less system design includes fully redundant, hot-swappable 
controllers, power and cooling units.  All system components are constantly monitored using 
industry standard protocols to ensure continuous operation in case of failure or component 
malfunction. Dual active-active, failover/failback RAID controllers provide redundant data paths 
to further help ensure availability.

RAID 6 (double parity) delivers the highest level of reliability and data protection in a cost-
effective solution.  As the capacity of storage arrays increases, so does the risk of encountering 
unrecoverable read errors with single parity RAID levels. RAID 6 can handle double drive 
failures, thereby providing greater protection against data loss. This also dramatically reduces 
the risk of catastrophic data loss during RAID rebuilds.

The VTrak line features Promise’s embedded browser based management interface, WebPAM 
PROe, eliminating the need to install additional software.  All VTrak systems on the network 
can be configured and monitored using a single, easy-to-manage interface through an out-of-
band Ethernet port.  By using industry-standard management protocols, Promise simplifies 
integration with third-party management applications.

Every VTrak is backed by the Promise 3-Year limited warranty with 24/7 telephone and email 
support (Americas & EMEA). When our support confirms a failure in the field, advanced 
replacement parts are always available to eliminate down time.
