Quick Installation Guide

Overview:

The GM-1000 series features a unique dual-NAS architecture that delivers cost-efficient and space-saving advantages. It contains two replaceable TNS-h1083X NAS nodes, which are powered by Intel® Xeon® E processors and provide high-performance 10GbE / 2.5GbE connectivity and expandable I/O. M.2 and U.2 SSD interfaces are also included to enable cache acceleration for tackling the performance wall in bandwidth-demanding and low-latency business applications (such as intensive backup and virtualization). Both TNS-h1083X NAS nodes use the ZFS-based QuTS hero operating system that supports block-level inline data deduplication and compression, near-limitless snapshots, real-time SnapSync, and more business-oriented features to achieve reliable service-level agreement performance.

Built-in 10GbE and 2.5GbE ports, PCIe slots, and M.2 SSD slots (NVMe Gen 3 x2) and U.2 SSD slots (NVMe Gen 3 x4 / SATA 6Gb/s) to increase performance potential.

ZFS

The QuTS hero operating system combines ZFS advantages with the QTS App Center ecosystem to empower your business.

Features:

Highly-flexible enclosure-based system with two replaceable NAS nodes

The GM-1000 consists of an enclosure with two independent NAS nodes. This layout provides greater flexibility in maintaining and upgrading NAS nodes to meet future performance needs for backup applications and other business tasks, and saves costs on the system enclosure.

Economic and space-saving chassis design

The GM-1000 is a 3U chassis with sixteen 3.5-inch drive bays. Compared with deploying two similar 2U 8-bay rackmount NAS, the GM-1000 saves rack space and system costs. The support for replaceable NAS nodes also simplifies upgrades and maintenance. Two NAS nodes can share the 770W redundant power supplies on the enclosure to ensure reliable services, providing rigid enterprise IT with a high-performance, reliable, and cost-efficient storage solution.

Ideal for cross backup and hybrid cloud applications

The GM-1000 hosts NAS nodes that feature the ZFS-based QuTS hero operating system. QuTS hero provides flexible storage management, comprehensive data protection, and optimized performance to tackle the complexity and performance demands of modern IT.

Supports inline data deduplication, compression, and compaction for highly-efficient backup storage. Both NAS nodes can be used for cross backup.
Double your NAS performance. Each NAS node can mount different cloud storage to offload cloud gateway services.
Hosts virtual machines to run diverse virtualized server applications.
Delivers high-performance, reliable, and cost-effective storage for virtualization.
Supports Fibre Channel SAN for high-performance data storage and backup.

Extend hardware warranty up to 5 years

The GM-1000 is backed by a 3-year warranty at no additional costs. You can purchase a warranty extension that increases your warranty coverage up to 5 years.
