Infortrend EonStor GS 3060 Gen3 Storage

Designed for NAS and SAN environments, the Infortrend EonStor GS 3060 Gen3 Storage appliance is housed in a 4U chassis. Accessible from the top of the system, 60x 3.5-inch drive bays can be populated with both 3.5-inch and 2.5-inch SATA/SAS drives. This appliance has four different configurations. The GS 3060ST3 houses a single compute controller, while the GS 3060ST3C also has a single controller with U.2 SSD cache. Other options include the GS 3060RT3, which houses dual redundant controllers, while the GS 3060RT3C houses dual controllers too, with U.2 SSD cache. Each controller supports a single Intel Xeon D processor with 4x cores.

Additional Information

Infortrend GS 3060 Gen3 top detail view

The ST3C and RT3C configuration options also support U.2 NVMe drives. Additional expansion enclosures increase the drive capacity to 896x. Using scale-out, up to 3584x drives can be supported per cluster. In addition to the single CPU, each controller has a default cache memory capacity of 8GB of DDR4 memory that can be increased to 192GB. Each controller also houses dual SAS expansion ports as well as a dedicated LAN management port on the rear. 2x host board slots are also available for the installation of optional NICs. The optional host boards are compatible with SFP+, RJ-45 ports, SAS, and Fiber Channel (FC) options. With one 100GbE (QSFP28) RDMA network interface controller (NIC) installed in 2x host boards will provide a maximum throughput of 100Gb/s. For RDMA applications at least 24GB is required per controller. Varying speeds and port configurations are available to choose from depending on your needs.

Another one of the performance features on this system is GPUDirect, which bypasses the CPU and system memory to directly address the host system GPU for maximum efficiency and low latency. Upgrading a system with a single controller to house a second, redundant controller is a simple process. Daisy-chaining the Infortrend GS 3060 Gen3 Storage appliance with other JBOD enclosures offers up to 896x drive bays. Data redundancy and security is available through a full range of RAID options, protecting your data from potential failures. The Infortrend EonOne web-based management software grants access to various management tools. Dual 1200W 80W PLUS Platinum power supplies power this system.
