Based on Dot Hill’s R/Evolution™ architecture, the 5730 is the initial member of a family of planned product releases from Dot Hill aimed at the midrange market. As a key member of Dot Hill’s product line which features the R/Evolution Architecture, the 5730 promotes a consistent user experience in both the entry level and midrange markets. This results in a common set of component Field Replaceable Units (disk drives, power supplies), a common Data Management Services infrastructure, a common graphical user interface/operation, and a common data structure. The architecture offers even more value and investment protection to the customer through data-in-place migration. Data-in-place migration allows customers to upgrade from the 2730 storage array to a 5730 storage array by replacing only the RAID controllers, extending the life of the disk drive investment.

The 5730 scales to support up to 108 mixed SAS/SATA disk drives, and up to 108 TBs with 1 TB SATA disk drives, yet offers a small footprint (2U12) for increased floor-tile density. The 5730 offers enhanced processing power, providing more than 1.6 GB/second read and 1.3 GB/second write throughput and 150,000 IOPS, driving application performance to new levels in a variety of environments.
