SAN JOSE, Calif., Feb. 10, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Quantum Corp.
(NYSE: QTM) today introduced the StorNext QXS-5600, a
high-capacity, high-density disk array that provides extremely
cost-effective storage for customers managing an increasing number
of large files containing high-resolution video, images or other
rich content. Part of Quantum's award-winning
StorNext® solutions portfolio, the StorNext
QXS-5600 is ideal work-in-process storage for a wide variety of
applications, including 4K and 8K video production and
postproduction, geospatial imaging, video surveillance, and seismic
research and analysis.

Dense Disk Storage for Demanding Workloads and
Environments
Like other StorNext Q-Series disk offerings,
the QXS-5600 is purpose-built for highly data-intensive
environments, delivering enterprise-class performance, redundancy,
availability and manageability. In addition, this highly dense
StorNext product provides up to 336TB of raw capacity in a 4U rack
(other configuration options are 168TB and 224TB). With as much as
twice the storage capacity per rack unit of smaller disk arrays,
the QXS-5600 reduces the space, power and cooling required to
support high-performance applications. On a dollar-per-TB basis, it
is Quantum's lowest-priced disk storage product, delivering a new
level of value in the company's disk offerings.
With its density and price-performance attributes, the QXS-5600
is particularly well-suited for nearline work-in-process storage,
where having content close by and quickly accessible for
re-monetization or other re-purposing is essential. It also is
tailor-made for non-real-time workflow operations where
high-density storage provides significant productivity
benefits.

price point — all backed by Quantum."
