Data Sheet
The StorTrends®2200n is an aordable 2U, high-density rack-mount
Network Attached Storage (NAS) appliance, perfect for workgroups or
departments. It provides a reliable way to manage and store valuable business
data without complexity. Easy to install, the StorTrends 2200n enables an
administrator to coordinate all functions relating to discovery, management,
tracking and planning for future storage growth.
The StorTrends 2200n is a
exible hardware platform that
can be coupled with StorTrends
iTX software for use as a dedicated
network storage appliance (NAS).
Built to support Intel® Dual-Core CPU
technologies, the StorTrends 2200n
oers performance and exibility.
The StorTrends® 2200n NAS
appliance is an ideal alternative to
traditional Direct Attached Storage
(DAS) environments. StorTrends
NAS appliances make it simple to
centralize le data storage from
Windows®, UNIX, Linux and Mac®
clients across an existing Ethernet
network.
The StorTrends 2200n oers
maximum data protection with RAID
levels 5 & 6 and network connectivity
to major operating systems, perfect
for workgroups or departmental
storage that are experiencing rapid
data growth.
Administrators can save time
and money by deploying StorTrends
2200n NAS appliances instead of
inexible DAS units. Adding capacity
in a DAS environment means
adding a server, which requires
downtime. Adding capacity with
AMI’s StorTrends 2200n means
no downtime for users, and can
be implemented for both quick,

additional and long-term storage,
as well as improved disk utilization
when compared to DAS.
The StorTrends 2200n oers
twelve hot-swappable drive bays
with SATA support, and network
teaming support that ensures load
balancing across the dual Ethernet
ports. UPS support enables the
automatic switching of the RAID
cache mode to write-through in the
event of a power loss.
Data security is enhanced by the
advanced snapshot capabilities of the
StorTrends 2200n. The administrator
has the power to rollback, review, and
mount data snapshots to recover lost
data quickly and with precision, just
moments after a catastrophe.
Management of StorTrends
appliances can be done using
the integrated web-based
ManageTrends™ GUI, AMI’s storage
management software. Users
managing more than one StorTrends
appliance can use ManageTrends
to discover and manage appliances
across the network. Manage Trends
also provides event
management, a detailed
analysis of enterprise-wide
storage usage, and storage
server availability reporting.

Advanced Features
Advanced Snapshot Technology
AMI’s Advanced Snapshot technology
enables up to 1,022 Read-Only and Read-
Write snapshots per volume. The module
allows for rapid creation and deletion of
a snapshot with near-zero degradation,
permitting faster back-ups than ever
before - with the assurance of a complete
and secure back-up. Advanced Snapshot
technology is focused on performance,
enabling users to mount a snapshot
as a volume, read from a snapshot
simultaneously, instantaneously roll back
to a snapshot, and delete it on demand.
Snap-assisted Replication (SAR)
This technology allows replication
of snapshots in chronological order
on a remote machine. Snapshots can
be organized by application-based
consistency groups. In fail-over to a
secondary appliance, StorTrends iTX
will automatically rollback to the latest
consistent snapshot.
WAN Optimization Data Services (WDS)
StorTrends utilizes several sophisticated
techniques to optimize the speed of long
distance WAN connections. It uses an
intelligent mix of standards-based transport
protocols to overcome the ineciencies
and high latencies of TCP protocols in WANs
and provide excellent bandwidth utilization.
Additional performance gains are made
through data reduction technologies such
as compression and data deduplication.
