- Global warranty inclusive. E5 dual-controller for nearly zero downtime high-availability. The ES1640dc is powered by two E5-2400 v 2 processors & features dual active-active controller architecture ensuring businesses with nearly zero downtime high availability as the standby controller can quickly take over if one controller breaks down. The ES1640dc connects to the JBOD enclosure via the dual path mini-SAS design to sustain continuous operations even if an external JBOD cable is disconnected. Designed around redundancy the ES1640dc is a great realization of reliable enterprise storage for uninterrupted mission-critical enterprise tasks & productivity. Dual controller NAS high reliability & high availability. Reliability is the primary priority for mission critical business applications. The ES1640dc adopts dual active-active controllers to provide the reliable base for business IT storage. NVRAM cache reducing the risks of losing write cache data. To increase random write performance & reliability the ES1640dc features NVRAM modules to protect write data. When data is written into NVRAM there are dedicated backup battery units to protect writing to the cache & at the same time the data is replicated to a backup controller to achieve 100% data integrity. NVRAM-backed write cache in the dual-controller architecture presents high performance fault-tolerant & helps reduce flash SSD write amplification. QES operating system combining ZFS file system. The ES1640dc features the QES (QNAP Enterprise Storage) operating system which is based on the simple & efficient Free BSD kernel & the ZFS file system that has been proven through years of experience to be suitable for high-end enterprise applications. QES supports dual active controller architecture & remote disaster recovery can be directly integrated into Open Stack cloud environments & is designed for intensive virtualization & VDI applications with optimal performance. Continuing the same user experience with the QTS operating system QES provides business users with an easy learning curve to quickly deploy the ES1640dc & provides a great storage solution jointly with the current QNAP NAS. ZFS
- the file system for business data storage. The ES1640dc features ZFS a combined file system & logical volume manager to support various advanced functions for high-end enterprise storage including powerful storage expansion flexible storage pools simplified management high-performance SSD cache nearly limitless snapshots & cloning data deduplication in-line compression & thin provisioning with reclaim for optimized utilization for virtual machine storage. ZFS is designed with a focus on data integrity & uses its end-to-end checksums to detect & correct silent data corruption caused by hardware defects bugs in firmware or metadata errors effectively protecting user's data. Strong disaster recovery made by nearly limitless snapshots & Snap Sync. The ES1640dc supports up to 65535 snapshots for i SCSI LUN & shared folders. When executing a remote snapshot backup it only needs to transfer changed data & can use deduplication & compression to significantly reduce the amount of transferred data. The ES1640dc can provide remote backup Snap Sync fo
