IBM Storwize V7000 is a storage solution that offers the advantages of NVMe, IBM FlashCore and IBM Spectrum Virtualize technologies.
As the switch to SSD reaches critical mass, the benefits in speed of an SSD over spinning rust are clear.
If you are looking to upgrade and not ready to completely replace your HDDs, they can run along side your SSD upgrade.
In addition, Storwize uses its internal memory as a cache, so EasyTier helps bring even higher performance.
Solid State drives installed in the V7000, or logical unit numbers mapped from other external back-end storage, can be organized according to their performance capabilities.
This lets the v7000 arrange data so that frequently accessed blocks are stored on SSD and less frequently accessed blocks can be stored on the hard disk drives.
