Native scale-out design
Adds cluster nodes to scale both capacity and throughput as requirements grow.
A 2U, 18-bay QuTS MEGA storage node designed to form a horizontally scalable cluster for PB-scale data, long-term retention and high-availability requirements.

The QSN-3000 runs QuTS MEGA and uses a native distributed architecture. The supplied information states that capacity and throughput scale with each added node and that scaling operations are performed without interrupting services.
The source lists the standard warranty only as 5 and does not identify the unit. Confirm the warranty duration, drive configuration, network design and cluster deployment requirements before purchase.
Answers below are based only on the supplied product information for QSN-3000.
It is a 2U, 18-bay Scale-out storage node that runs QuTS MEGA and is designed to operate as part of a horizontally scalable storage cluster.
It provides 18 bays: 12 × 3.5-inch SATA bays and 6 × 2.5-inch SATA SSD bays.
The supplied specifications list an Intel Xeon E-2336 6-core/12-thread processor running at 2.9GHz and up to 4.8GHz.
It includes 128GB ECC DDR4 memory, with a supplied maximum of 128GB across four ECC UDIMM slots.
It includes two 10GBASE-T ports and two 2.5GbE ports.
Yes. The supplied specifications list optional 25GbE connectivity through a PCIe adapter.
Organisations can add nodes to the cluster. The supplied information states that capacity and throughput scale with each node and scaling is performed without service interruption.
The supplied product information lists native SMB, NFS and S3 API support.
The QSN-3000 supports Erasure Coding and Replication, with the node used as the failure domain.
Services are described as automatically recovering and migrating, while self-healing processes rebuild lost data.
The specifications list three PCIe slots and four USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A ports.
The supplied specifications show a standard warranty value of 5 but do not state the unit, so the duration should be confirmed.
