Infortrend Launches First High-Performance U.2 NVMe All-Flash Expansion for AI and Video Editing
Infortrend Unveils Cutting-Edge Expansion Solution with JB 4000U
In today's fast-paced digital environment, the demand for advanced storage solutions is paramount, especially for applications such as artificial intelligence (AI), video editing, and data backup. Recognizing this need, Infortrend® Technology, Inc. (TWSE: 2495), a leading provider of enterprise storage solutions, has launched its very first all-flash expansion chassis, known as the JB 4000U. This innovative product serves as a scalable storage option that caters to high-performance needs, supporting a variety of applications requiring quick access to large amounts of data.
The JB 4000U all-flash expansion chassis is seamlessly designed for EonStor GS U.2 NVMe unified storage systems, boasting a compact 2U form factor that allows users to install up to 24 U.2 NVMe SSDs in a single unit. When configured with two controllers, it achieves an impressive throughput of up to 24 GB/s—an astounding 50% higher than the throughput offered by Infortrend's fastest SAS SSD expansion chassis. This makes it an attractive option for enterprise users looking to enhance their storage capabilities without sacrificing performance.
What sets the JB 4000U apart is its ability to deliver superior performance at a fraction of the cost associated with traditional expansion solutions built around SAS SSDs. U.2 NVMe SSDs, typically more cost-effective than their SAS counterparts, allow users to expand their storage capacity substantially, reaching up to 1.47 PB in a single appliance. Furthermore, by adding up to three additional JBOFs (Just a Bunch of Flash), the total capacity can soar to an impressive 4.4 PB.
For applications that demand high throughput and capacity such as AI and media production, the flagship EonStor GS 5024UE combined with U.2 NVMe SSD storage and the JB 4000U can achieve a phenomenal 50 GB/s throughput alongside PB-level SSD capacity. This combination not only meets but exceeds the requirements for intensive tasks such as real-time data processing and analysis, making it a go-to choice for many enterprises.
In scenarios where rapid backups and recovery are necessary, the cost-efficient setup comprising the EonStor GS 3024UT and JB 4000U provides a staggering 61.44TB of storage via QLC U.2 NVMe SSDs, showcasing its versatility and performance in various use cases.
Frank Lee, Senior Director of Product Planning at Infortrend Technology, highlighted the significance of this launch: “Our first U.2 NVMe JBOF, the JB 4000U, delivers exceptional performance and an extraordinarily high capacity—all within a compact 2U rackmount form factor. As there are few comparable products available in the market today, it stands out as an excellent option for applications requiring high capacity and rapid data access.”
This launch reflects Infortrend's ongoing commitment to providing high-performance, reliable storage solutions that address the evolving needs of businesses across different sectors. The tech industry is ever-changing, and Infortrend continues to stay ahead of the curve by offering innovative solutions that meet and surpass user expectations.
