The Dell™PowerVault™MD3600f/MD3620f arrays are the introduction of 8Gb/s Fibre Channel in the MD series of arrays. The SAN solution is ideal for entry-level storage consolidation that requires high availability, high performance, and business continuity without sacrificing ease of use and reliability. Designed for flexibility, the MD3600f arrays support a range of drive types, enclosures, and RAID levels all within a single array.

Proven Fibre Channel-based network storage

PowerVault MD3600f arrays offer exceptional performance and flexibility and reliability for storage consolidation and scalability to meet unexpected business demands. Now it’s simple to improve storage utilization by combining storage resources, increasing availability with redundant hardware, and streamlining the backup process. By consolidating data and resources with a single array, backup strategies, and management complexities are minimized.

Reduce the effort required to store and manage your data.MD3600f Series arrays can support up to 64 physical servers when connected to one or more 4Gb/s or 8Gb/s Fibre Channel switches. Storage capacity, up to a maximum of 96 hard disk drives, can be expanded by attaching additional PowerVault MD1200 and/or MD1220 expansion enclosures.

Fibre Channel storage, ideal for data-intensive applications

Implement your high-performance network storage solution for less with MD3600f Series arrays while protecting your existing Fibre Channel investment proving business continuity and reliability. Now you can effectively consolidate storage to support the value of your Fibre Channel environment with the performance to meet both IOPs-intensive as well as high bandwidth applications. MD3600f storage systems are also fully qualified for use in virtualized application environments with VMware® ESX and Microsoft® Hyper-V™ software.

To protect data and processes from major regional disasters like earthquakes, fires, or large-scale power outages, your organization needs remote replication of data to a secondary site. It is also used for testing and deploying new databases without any downtime.
