    Optimized Storage Solution With Protocol Support and Cost Effective Capacity Management

    Apr 6, 2026
    Overall, it has good performance and cost per TB for storing data. It's a reliable solution for geodata processing and designed for non- disruptive upgrades. It supports multiple protocols which works well for VMware and file shares. We have been using it for our GIS department to process Geo data for ArcGIS pro and it works flawlessly.

The first thing is a good costing compared to other Vendor. Second, it has excellent storage efficiency for deduplication and compression of data, and the C series is really good for optimized for capacity, not peak performance. It's a great solution for VDI for storing the profile data with stable snapshot and backups functionality.
