Overview

The revolutionary All-in-One Storage Manager (ASM) interface reduces the time, expense, and expertise required to keep up with rapidly growing applications. ASM eliminates complexity by automating storage tasks and presenting capacity in familiar application-centric terms, providing a simple way to control data growth. IT generalists can look like storage experts with tools to setup shared folders and iSCSI Target storage for hosts running Windows, Linux, VMWare ESX Server, and more. Tight integration with Microsoft Exchange and SQL Server enables painless data migration. Quickly and easily setup or expand data areas, move data from capacity constrained servers, manage disk based backup areas, implement data protection policies, consolidate backup, replicate data between sites, and more.

Finally, a simple, affordable, and reliable network storage solution that dynamically adapts to the needs of your business; providing many of the management, consolidation, and data protection features typically reserved for higher-priced products.

AiO400t/AiO400r: These affordable 4-drive (SATA or SAS) entry-level network storage solutions are great for small environments that need less than 2TB of raw capacity.

What's New

• The new AiO400r (rack) replaces the AiO400 and is built on the HP ProLiant DL160 G5. It is a true ProLiant platform with the reliability and performance you expect from the industry leader. It also is available in both SATA and SAS HDD configurations.
• The AiO400t (tower) is a completely new AiO product built on the HP ProLiant ML110 G5. It offers a tower form factor, both SATA and SAS HDDs, and a lower entry price point.

Features and Benefits

• Breakthrough simplicity that lowers the cost and complexity of data management: The intuitive All-in-One Storage Manager interface radically simplifies the growth, management, and protection of data by hiding complexity and enabling storage to be a turnkey resource. Designed for IT generalists with no storage expertise, these systems can be setup and actively serving files in less than 30 minutes.
  
  
• Integrated and adaptive storage solutions to enable business growth: HP All-in-One Storage Systems offer an incredible degree of utility and flexibility by providing shared storage for multiple application servers, file serving for end-user clients, and data protection for both file and application data via disk-snapshots and backup software.
  
  
• Affordable and cost effective solution for growing application environments: Managed through a single interface, HP All-in-One Storage provides shared application storage (iSCSI SAN), file serving (NAS), and data protection below the cost of separate products and without the need to change your infrastructure.
  
  
• Application-centric storage management simplifies operation and lowers costs: Easy to manage because it uses terms and functions familiar to application administrators. Includes end-to-end iSCSI management for Windows Servers plus iSCSI provisioning for other iSCSI initiators (Linux, VMWare, etc.). Provides data migration wizards for Microsoft Exchange 2003/2007 and SQL Server 2000/2005.
  
  
• ‘Best Practice’ toolkit makes every IT Administrator look like a storage expert: HP All-in-One Storage Systems include tools to easily migrate and manage data using best practice settings. For example, iSCSI storage for a Microsoft Exchange Storage Group can be expertly setup and migrated in less than 10 mouse clicks, saving you time and reducing the risk to your business.
  
  
• Shared storage for growing application servers (iSCSI SAN) enables efficient use of capacity: Sharing storage between servers is more efficient and costs less to manage over time when compared to adding additional drives or servers. Sharing storage means that you maximize investments in additional capacity while enabling easier growth and shorter backup windows.
  
  
• Enhanced file serving for end-user clients (NAS) to improve productivity and collaboration: Tuned for faster file serving performance (beyond standard Windows servers). The Single Instance Storage (SIS) de-duplication feature can improve capacity utilization by 30% or more by eliminating duplicate files within shared volumes. Full text search capabilities increase the speed of end-user search.
  
  
• Comprehensive and integrated data protection to ensure easy roll-back and disaster recovery: Integrated data protection software allows you to easily manage disk based snapshots, consolidate network backup, and copy data to tape for offsite and long term archival. Includes hot plug disk drives (RAID), and hardware redundancy. Data can also be replicated to another system for enhanced disaster recovery.
  
  
• Easy to deploy and manage so you can focus on your core business: The industry standard iSCSI interface provides the benefits of shared SAN storage on a traditional TCP/IP network. HP ProLiant hardware ensures reliability, low TCO, and easy support. The All-in-One Storage Manager quickly walks administrators through all setup and management tasks.
  
  
• Award winning warranty, support and troubleshooting tools to ensure worry-free operation: HP All-in-One Storage Systems can send alerts for various events such as an impending disk failure reducing the potential for downtime while HP’s world class support organization and partner network ensures that you can quickly recover in the case of a problem.
