PAC Storage Enhances NVMe Capacity with High-Density 48-Bay AFAs

PAC Storage (PAC) has released the NVMe 4U 48-bay model as an expansion to their all-flash storage systems.

This solution offers over 700TB of high-density and high-performance NVMe storage in one appliance for NAS and SAN storage, and is for data-intensive applications requiring high IO/s, high throughput, and low latency. The dual-controller system supports PCIe Gen4 and offers performance of 1.1 million IO/s, 24GB/s read, and 12GB/s write throughput with up to 100GbE connectivity.

“PAC Storage is first-to-market with our all-new, 48-bay all-flash NVMe system,” said Rick Crane, CEO. “While most NVMe all-flash storage systems are only available in smaller form factors offering less capacity or require an expensive scale-out configuration, our 4U-48 bay NVMe is ideal for clients who require additional capacity alongside NVMe performance elements. When you consider high-performance, capacity, data protection, and high-availability, this NVMe system is offered at an unbeatable price.”

This NVMe model arrives on the heels of the recent company’s PS Gen3 product line release, which are the 1st PS systems to offer up to 22TB enterprise-grade drives. Equipped with the latest Xeon D processors, both the PS Gen3 and company’s NVMe Gen4 systems are designed to master demanding RW applications. This latest NVMe edition accelerates system performance alongside its smaller sister model, the 2U-24Bay NVMe. Its extensive IO/s and throughput is tailored to AI, database, VDI, M&E, and HPC applications.  

“As PAC continues to grow and celebrate our 23 year as a data storage provider, our focus remains where it has always been – on our customers,” said Crane. “Our clients asked for a high-density NVMe system, so we’re ready to ship with most systems delivered within 3 weeks.”
