Eco-Computer company VeryPC®, has launched a new eco-efficient, mission critical storage offering. The “L210” storage server supports up to 12,000GB of storage, at speeds of up to 700MB/s, which represents one whole CD worth of data per second. The server is a rack mountable, 2u high device that consumes a tiny 195W when fully configured and operating. Similarly specified, non-eco friendly storage units use three times as much electricity!

At peak load the 24 disk 12TB L210 server consumes only 250W and supports 12,000 I/O operations per second, as measured by the industry standard IOmeter. The server achieves this efficiency through its use of VeryPC’s GreenServer Architecture™, ultra high efficiency power supplies and ultra-efficient disks. VeryPC achieve huge performance through the use of intelligent technologies to aggregate the performance of the 24 disks together.

The L-Class server also supports the new intel solid state disks, for ultra high throughput, high performance storage. When used with solid state disks, each disk has 32 parallel command queues, allowing the server to address 768 command queues resulting in hundreds of thousands of I/O operations. The unit is available as a NAS or as a SAN with iSCSI, Fibre Channel or Infiniband interfaces.
Memset, the multi-award winning Web host and UK's first carbon neutral ISP, have been using the L210 to host their SquirrelSave personal backup service and are making them available to customers as part of their range of storage solutions. Kate Craig-Wood, Memset's MD said:

"We are delighted with the L210. Many of our customers have a requirement for a high-performance storage array and a dual-CPU server - the L210 gives us this in one compact box. Not only that, but it is vastly more energy-efficient than the alternatives, which makes it a very cost-effective performance-storage solution."
Customers can purchase the L210 unit through VeryPC or one of VeryPC’s approved Reseller partners, alternatively customers can rent the servers along with hosting provision from Memset dedicated hosting. L210 units start from £3779+VAT, with a 12TB unit costing £6810+VAT.
