SAS  DISK  INCLUDED  IN  THE  PROPOSITION need  higher  performance/  response.  It  will  be  leveraged  mainly  for  READ  -­‐  but  also  WRITE  is  
taken  into  account  if  Data  is  residing  on  the  FAST  Cache]
Way  higher  than  Competition  [Direct  Data  residing  on  Flash  for  critical  Application  +  FAST  
Cache  further  enhances  for  LUNs/  Volumes  on  SAS].  The  IOPS  from  FLASH  POOL  will  be  
=>36000.  The  IOPS  considering  SAS  POOL  +  FLASH  POOL  with  Auto  Tiering  [minimum  
14500  (RAID  1/0  for  SAS)  or  minimum  13500  (RAID  5  for  SAS)].  Note  that  we  have  not  
IOPS
considered  the  FAST  CACHE  related  benefit  here  (which  will  only  be  way  too  high).  As  
stated  the  FAST  CACHE  is  proposed  to  be  used  only  for  SAS  Pool  incase  of  FLASH  POOL  
being  dedicated  for  critical  performance  intense  DATA  -­‐  then  the  IOPS  for  select  LUN's  
which  will  be  configured  to  leverage  FAST  CACHE  will  be  very  high.
