Introduction

The Lenovo ThinkSystem DS6200 is a versatile, scalable mid-range storage system designed to provide simplicity, speed, scalability, security, and high availability for medium to large businesses. The ThinkSystem DS6200 delivers enterprise-class storage management technology in a performance-optimized solution with a wide choice of host connectivity options, flexible drive configurations, and enhanced data management features. The ThinkSystem DS6200 is a perfect fit for a wide range of enterprise workloads, including big data and analytics, transactional systems, OLTP databases, and other storage I/O-intensive applications.

The ThinkSystem DS6200 supports up to 240 drives with up to nine external expansion enclosures. It also offers flexible drive configurations with the choice of 2.5-inch (controller and expansion units) and 3.5-inch (expansion units only) drive form factors, 10 K or 15 K rpm SAS and 7.2 K rpm NL SAS hard disk drives (HDDs) and self-encrypting drives (SEDs), and SAS solid-state drives (SSDs). The DS6200 can be scaled up to 1.84 PB of raw storage capacity.

Did you know?

The ThinkSystem DS6200 supports Intelligent Real-time Tiering capabilities that help optimize system performance, reduce costs, and simplify management. The base software includes the ability to move data dynamically between SAS HDDs that are optimized for cost per IOPS and NL SAS HDDs that are optimized for cost per GB. With the optional software license, the DS6200 supports hybrid tiering across HDDs and SSDs.

The ThinkSystem DS6200 offers the flexible choice of 12 Gb SAS, 1/10 Gb iSCSI, and 4/8/16 Gb Fibre Channel (FC) host connectivity protocols, with support for hybrid iSCSI and Fibre Channel connectivity at the same time. The Converged Network Controller (CNC) design of the DS6200 makes the selection of iSCSI or FC host connectivity as simple as attaching corresponding transceivers or Direct-Attach Copper (DAC) cables to the SFP/SFP+ ports on the controller module.

The ThinkSystem DS6200 supports battery-free cache protection, which reduces maintenance costs and provides permanent backup of unwritten cache data if there is a power failure.
