Single/Dual Controller Module

Depending on your application availability and performance requirements, you may choose either the single or dual

controller module configuration. To achieve high availability and optimal performance, Promise recommends using the

dual controller module configuration.

Memory Option

For high performance VTL applications, Promise recommends using two gigabytes of memory, on the controller,

and four-cell battery for ample cache memory backup retention.

Two gigabytes of memory and four-cell battery are not the default configuration of VTrak E610f.

When ordering, ask for the following SKUs:

 Two gigabyte memory, SKU VTEMEM2G

 Four-cell battery, SKU VTBAT4CELL

To place your order, please contact Promise Sales. See “Contact Us” on page 5.

Hard Drive

VTL is generally a high capacity application. For this reason, Promise recommends using high capacity, low cost

enterprise-capable SATA drives. Please refer to the Promise VTrak E610f compatibility matrix on the Promise website,

under Support > Compatibility Matrix, for compatible hard drive models.
