ES1686Adc
Enterprise high availability storage that evolves from SAS to NVMe — keep services online today, unlock PCIe Gen4 performance whenever you are ready, in the same system

Downtime and forklift upgrades are the two costs that enterprise storage budgets rarely account for. The ES1686Adc is a 3U 16-bay high availability (HA) storage array built to remove both. Two Active-Active controllers process I/O simultaneously and take over for one another transparently, keeping SMB/NFS file services and iSCSI / Fibre Channel block services online through component failure and planned maintenance. At the same time, a hybrid backplane lets every one of the 16 bays accept either SAS 12Gb/s or U.3 PCIe NVMe drives — so you can deploy SAS capacity at a low cost per TB today, and adopt NVMe SSDs whenever your workloads demand PCIe Gen4 performance, without replacing the storage platform, the operating system, or the way your team manages it.

- Dual controllers, each with an Intel® Xeon® D 8-core processor
- Supports 16 x 3.5-inch SAS SSD/HDD or 2.5-inch U.3 NVMe dual-port SSD
- Four built-in 10GbE SFP+ ports with 25GbE expansion support
- Powered by the QES operating system (ZFS file system) for high IOPS and petabyte-scale storage capacity
