The IBM System Storage DS3500 Express Storage Systems are the addition to the IBM System Storage DS3000 series family of entry disk storage systems. The DS3500 delivers affordable - entry-level configurations for small and medium businesses in compact 2U - 19-inch rack mount enclosures - with the flexibility to scale in capacity - performance - host interfaces - and functions as your business grows or requirements change. The DS3500 combines next-generation controller technology with a 6 gigabit per second (Gb) SAS interconnect to the disk drives and high-performance host interface technologies - 6 Gb SAS and 8 Gb Fibre Channel (FC). In addition to 6 Gb SAS and 8 Gb FC host interfaces - the DS3500 also supports 1 Gb iSCSI.
