Greetings:
We are looking for a SAN to be the backup repository on premise.
-Capacity 15TB to start and ability to grow. -Put an identical unit in a colocated offsite location. -SAN's should de-duplicate and stay sync'd overnight (this has to be a (preferably) built in feature of the SAN). I am looking for the products that is optimized for this WAN syncing.
We also want to explore, moving production data into the WAN from the current Direct Attached Storage in 6 Windows 2008 R2 Guests (running in 2 VmWare physical machines), total 2 TB; and 2 Ubuntu 16.x physical servers, total 11TB. What kind of performance can I expect from a SAN compared to a DAS 10k NAS Raid 5 system
Thanks
