Ports Per Controller:Dell PowerVault ME5, the new gold standard for entry storage, affordably brings the essential features and data devices of mid-to-high-end storage to small-medium businesses (SMBs). PowerVault ME5 unleashes substantial performance, capacity, and bandwidth gains over its predecessor system without compromising simplicity, features, or business outcomes. Designed to meet several SMB data storage challenges, PowerVault ME5 reduces complexity, drives more performance, supports higher capacity, ensures data protection, and achieves budget stability when supporting a diverse SMB workload and application environment.
One of the standout features of the Dell PowerVault ME5 is the flexibility it offers in terms of storage controller options. With Four different options to choose from, you can select the protocol that best suits your needs.

4-port 25GbE iSCSI

4-port 12Gb SAS

6 x 12Gb SAS ports per array
These same chassis form factors are used for the supported expansion enclosures; but with I/O modules instead of controller modules. To make this system an expansion Array you simply need to install the 3-port 12Gb IOM SAS Module in the rear of the system. With this new I/O Module installed you can daisy chain up to 9 2U or 3 5U Systems to the ME5024 SAN Storage Array.
Adding external storage to servers can create many tangible benefits for SMBs. Separating servers from storage means you won’t be faced with server upgrades or server swaps due to lack of capacity. With PowerVault controller-based arrays or JBOD, server upgrades and maintenance can occur without data disruption as data remains in place. PowerVault ME5 storage, validated with Dell PowerEdge Servers running different host operating systems, gives IT organizations a dynamic, high-performance, and scalable infrastructure for any size business – simply and economically.
PowerVault ME5 is the new gold standard for entry SAN/DAS storage workloads with radical simplicity, awesome performance and scalability and a balance of performance and price making it cost-effective to fit the budgets of Small to Medium Size Businesses - so you can stay focused on your business outcomes. So, whether you’re looking to start small or grow to hundreds of terabytes to support high-value workloads, Dell PowerVault ME5 has you covered.
