The Perfect SAN Storage for Mission Critical
The XCubeSAN XS5200 series is the newest generation of Dual-Active(Active-Active)SAN systems with high performance, simple, secure, scalable, and affordable for enterprise.It brings the enterprise-level features such as thin provisioning, SSD read and write cache, auto tiering, and snapshot to the SMB businesses. The XS5200 products are designed to be an ideal solution to the applications of mission critical data center,high performance computing, virtualization integration, or media and entertainment environments.
Wide Ranging Product Portfolio
The XS5200 series features a wide range of form factors including:
-
XS5224: 4U 24-bay, LFF (Large Form Factor)
-
XS5216: 3U 16-bay, LFF
-
XS5212: 2U 12-bay, LFF
-
XS5224: 2U 26-bay, SFF (Small Form Factor)
Dual-Active Design
The XS5200 series features a Dual-Active controller architecture, both controllers concurrently provide storage services in real time. Active-Active architecture doubles the available host bandwidth and cache-hit ratio, this ensures there is no wasted resource in the system. If one controller fails, the other controller can transparently take over all storage services seamlessly. In addition to storage services, management service can be transparently passed to the secondary controller.
Ultra-high Performance
With its all-new hardware architecture and leveraging Intel® newest processor, 12Gb SAS 3.0 backplane, built-in 10GbE LAN, and the finely-tuned SANOS 4.0’s performance, the XS5200 series can deliver an astounding 12,000MB/s1 sequential read and 8,000MB/s1 sequential write in throughput and over 1.5 million2 sequential IOPS.
XS5226, SFF 2U26
Design for All-flash Storage
QSAN XS5226 model (2.5” 2U 26-bay) is the industry’s first high density all flash/low power SAN storage. Accelerate performance, consolidate space, and has two more storage bays (around 8% more capacity) than the popular 2U 24-bay products available on the market. This can further lower the cost per TB, minimize IT rack space, and generate smaller and greener footprint.
High Availability with No Single Point of Failure
The XS5200 series is a proven high availability SAN storage system. All of the critical components in the XS5200 series are hot pluggable and designed with full redundancy. Besides, dual-active controller design and automatic failover/failback mechanism, cache mirroring through NTB (Non-Transparent Bridge) bus to achieve Active-Active HA functionality, these designs allow the XS5200 series to withstand multiple component failures and achieve 99.999% availability.
Latest 12Gb SAS 3.0 Controller
12Gb SAS 3.0 is the latest and fastest drive interface available. It doubles the data transfer rate of SAS 2.0 (6Gb), while remaining backward compatible with 6Gb SAS 2.0 drives.The benefit is that you have the flexibility to purchase less expensive 6Gb SAS for initial installation or leverage investment of your existing 6Gb SAS drives and have a peace of mind knowing you can migrate to 12Gb SAS 3.0 by purchasing only new drives.
Built-in High Speed 10GbE LAN Ports
The base unit SAN controller comes with two onboard 10GBASE-T iSCSI port per controller. The Dual-Active controller XS5200 SAN system has four 10GBASE-T iSCSI ports reaching 40Gb/s bandwidth when you aggregate all ports together. This base unit SAN system comes ready to support a variety of applications including data sharing, backup, video editing, and native virtualization support for VMware, Citrix, and Hyper-V.
Multipath Storage Access
MPIO (Multi Path Input Output) is a fault-tolerance and performance enhancement technique which allows the use of more than one path to the volume from the same host server. MPIO is supported in both iSCSI and Fibre Channel protocols.
SANOS 4.0 SAN Operation System
SANOS 4.0 is QSAN’s proprietary SAN storage operating system. SANOS 4.0 is equipped with a refreshingly simple to use web GUI and easily deployable into any infrastructure. Based on the Linux kernel, SANOS delivers comprehensive storage functionality including advanced storage management, complete RAID level protection, fast RAID rebuild, storage pool migration, thin provisioning, SSD cache, auto-tiering, snapshot, data backup & disaster recovery, virtualization support, performance monitoring, and scale-up support and more.

Scale-up Solution
The XS5200 SAN provides a massive scale-up capability by connecting either our XD5300 expansion enclosures. It can support up to whopping 286 disk drives or up to 2.6PB of raw storage space when using 10TB NL-SAS drives.
High Density, High Flexibilty, and High Scalability
The expansion XD5300 series is the best scale up solution for XCubeSAN XS5200 customers. It is available in 4U LFF 24-bay (XD5324D), 3U 16-bay (XD5316D), 2U 12-bay (XD5312D), and the world’s first 2U SFF 26-bay (XD5326D). These can support up to ten expansion enclosures. For ultimate flexibility, there is no restriction on mixing different form factors of expansion enclosures together. Users can choose different form factors of expansion enclosures in accordance with their needs and budget.
Modular I/O Ports for iSCSI SAN and Fibre Channel SAN
Each XS5200 SAN controller has two host card slots that can be configured as iSCSI SAN, Fibre Channel, or a mix of both. There are various types of 4-port optional host cards available to match your specific need, including 16Gb Fibre Channel, 10GbE iSCSI, and 1GbE iSCSI. You can choose the appropriate host card for your initial requirement, as your business grows you can add extra host cards to enhance system connectivity.
In dual controller configurations, the system can support up to 20 ports of 10GbE iSCSI or 8 ports of 16Gb FC connectivity3. Both 10GbE iSCSI with SFP+ interface and 10GBASE-T interface can coexist and deliver concurrent data services and maximize uptime. Utilizing these numerous ports, you can cost-effectively connect multiple host servers directly to the XS5200 series without using FC switch or Ethernet switch.
Cache-to-Flash Memory Protection Technology
In the event of power loss, the I/O cache data stored in volatile memory will be lost, this can cause data inconsistencies especially in database applications. The XS5200 series can provide an optional Cache-to-Flash memory protection function that will safely transfer the memory cache data to a non-volatile flash device for permanent preservation. The optional Cache-to-Flash module comes with an M.2 flash module and either a BBM (Battery Backup Module) or an SCM (Super Capacitor Module).
