The HardBank is a ruggedized version of the award-winning MiniBank™ product that is ideal for military, air-constrained, and mobile applications that have poor ventilation, high particulate matter, or heavy vibration. Up to six HardBanks can be configured together as a high-performance iSCSI SAN HardBank Array. Each HardBank contributes a free virtual server that can access the shared capacity and performance of the SAN. Both storage and applications are protected in the case of a HardBank failure. The award-winning innovation of hosting servers in an iSCSI SAN eliminates the need for standalone physical servers resulting in dramatic eduction in power, cooling, rack space and cost.
HardBanks can be combined to create a scalable iSCSI SAN array with no single point of failure. Storage can be logically and physically expanded with applications running.
A virtual server running on each HardBank eliminates external physical servers and reduces rackspace, power, cooling and acquisition costs.
The HardBank features a hardened chassis, heavy duty cooling, special dust protection and vibration protection to meet the harshest environmental conditions.
The Pivot3 scale-out architecture based on standard appliances, standard Gigabit Ethernet networks and open systems software streamlines complex installations.
