Hi VSS Experts,
You spent a lot of time with customers and EMC partners at ASIS doing live demos. Tell us about it!

Hello All,
As far as I know , video surveillance system tends to be large in IO Size with a very high percent of random distribution, (because of VMS) and they are supposed to write much more than read. At least I have analyze storage system of a customer and found out their average IO Size was 120KB and distribution was 98% write & only 2 % read.
So, Why does everyone use NL-SAS (7.2K rpm) for data storing of video surveillance system? VSS-100 is equipped with NL-SAS as well.
SAS has a higher IOPS, and in an environment with large IO Size, they can gain more bandwidth.
So Is there any technical reasons for choosing NL-SAS in VSS or it is only because of lower price and higher capacity?
Thanks,
Ali

Video surveillance storage at the Edge is characterized by many attributes/requirements including availability, simplicity, and certifications with VMS. Another important attribute is cost. We've configured the VNX-VSS to reflect as many of these Edge requirments as possible including scalability and price understanding that the VNX-VSS also has innate capabilities to deliver high system bandwidth (which we've tested) of up to 500 MB/sec - combined with the large capacity drives - gives customers a leading "edge" solution to support a few hundred cameras at multiple bit rates.
