Use it like TLC, pay for it like QLC
Overview
Optimized for high capacity workloads
IBM FlashSystem C300 delivers lower TCO and enterprise durability for high capacity workloads like media streaming, archives, and backups.
Features
Protect. Adapt. Perform.
Reduce the operational costs for HDD workloads such as media streaming, archives, and backup, saving on space, power, management, and maintenance costs.
Guaranteed non-disruptive workload mobility between FlashSystem arrays using AI-driven management, scaling, and workload placement, helping to get more value out of your storage.
Benefit from the same FlashSystem enterprise-grade security and availability services, making it the perfect solution for disaster recovery use cases.
Providing unmatched density with 3.3PB raw and up to 11.8 PBe in 2U, helps consolidate HDDs to save 71% rack space on average.
Save space, energy, and improve performance
By moving your data from storage arrays using 16TB HDD to FlashSystem C300.
