iXsystems: Leading the Way in Open-Source Storage with the TrueNAS F-Series
iXsystems, the open-source storage company, is once again revolutionizing the industry with the highly anticipated TrueNAS F-Series. This cutting-edge addition to their catalogue is powered by the soon-to-be-announced TrueNAS Enterprise 23.10 Hyperconverged Storage Software.
The Next Generation of Storage Appliances
With the launch of the TrueNAS Enterprise F-Series, iXsystems is taking storage to new heights. This all-NVMe system boasts maximum performance, reliability, and density to handle even the most extreme workloads. With 30TB NVMe drives and a wildcard capacity of up to 720TB in a single 2U system, the F-Series blows previous models out of the water. Not only that, but it also offers significant reductions in power, space, and Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), proving iXsystems’ commitment to efficiency and sustainability.
Unmatched Performance for Any Use Case
The F-Series comes equipped with the newly developed TrueNAS Enterprise 23.10 software, which allows IT organizations to tackle the most demanding performance requirements while staying true to open-source economics. These advanced appliances are designed to handle data-intensive use cases, including AI/ML, containerization, content creation, database servers, gaming, and virtualization. With thousands of loyal customers across various sectors eagerly awaiting the F-Series, it’s clear that this innovative storage solution is set to make a big impact.
Unrivaled Scalability and Adaptability
The TrueNAS Enterprise 23.10 software, compatible with the entire iXsystems appliance collection, creates a highly adaptable storage environment. This Linux-based platform offers native container support, seamless integration with Kubernetes for containerized applications, and exceptional scalability with the ability to support up to 1,200 drives and 25PB+ in a single system. As it’s built on the robust OpenZFS 2.2 filesystem, it prioritizes scalability and high availability, boasting a scale-up or scale-out architecture to ensure optimal data integrity and innovative storage features to tackle any data-intensive business challenge.
Upgraded and Enhanced for Optimal Performance
To further enhance the reliability and performance of TrueNAS Enterprise 23.10, iXsystems has made multiple contributions that have led to an upgrade to OpenZFS 2.2. This update also includes a Linux Kernel 6.1 upgrade, improved hardware support, NVIDIA 353.54.03 driver updates, an enhanced storage pool UI, and the addition of ZFS Block Cloning (Deduplication) for SMB and NFS file copies. Additionally, ZFS dRAID Pool Layouts have been implemented to ensure maximum data integrity and availability.
Designed for Modern Business Applications
The TrueNAS F-Series is a testament to iXsystems’ commitment to creating high-quality, future-ready solutions for businesses. With its high-performance NVMe-powered storage, low latency, resilience, and drive density, the F-Series is perfect for a variety of requirements, scaling from tens of terabytes up to 720TB in a simple 2U system. The dual-controller architecture ensures continuous accessibility, preventing any data downtime. And with a wide selection of connectivity options, data mobility is at its peak. Both the TrueNAS M-Series and F-Series systems are compatible with the same TrueNAS Enterprise 23.10 software and boast a user-friendly WebUI.
