Starboard Storage Systems, a storage provider, has released the Starboard AC72 Storage System, designed to simplify managing mixed workload environments that include unstructured, virtualized, and structured data. The Starboard AC72 Storage System delivers twice the performance at half the cost of legacy SAN and NAS systems.
The Starboard AC72 Storage System provides optimized consolidation of unstructured, virtualized, and structured data onto a single scalable storage system. Previously, SMB customers had to maintain separate silos of DAS, NAS, and SAN storage, meaning costly forklift upgrades from one storage array to another.

- SSD Accelerator Tier, boosting performance for both reads and writes
- Dynamic storage pooling and automated SSD are combined for simpler management of mixed workload environments
- Starboard Storage Apps to simplify the provisioning of volumes across multiple protocols, including CIFS, NFS, iSCSI, and Fibre Channel
- All-inclusive storage license that includes thin provisioning, mirroring, asynchronous replication, and snapshots
- Scales up to 474 TBs
- Completely redundant architecture
The Starboard AC72 Storage System is available now through resellers, starting at $59,995, which includes 24TB, SSD Accelerator Tier with three SSD drives, thin provisioning, asynchronous replication, and snapshots. For more information, visit http://www.starboardstorage.com.
