Now, the new IBM Storwize V5100 and IBM Storwize V5100F models bring NVMe technology into the affordable Storwize V5000 suite. Storwize V5100 combines NVMe-powered IBM FlashCore technology with a rich set of IBM Spectrum Virtualize features, including external virtualization and two-way clustering. Unique high-performance, high-density IBM FlashCore Modules (FCMs) can be mixed with standard NVMe solid-state drives (SSDs) to balance speed and cost-efficiency, while IBM Spectrum Virtualize for Public Cloud enables almost unlimited storage capacity by seamlessly integrating on-premises and cloud resources into one management domain.
Storwize V5100 systems leverage the advantages of IBM FlashCore-enhanced 3D triple-layer cell (TLC) storage media that provides greater flash density and storage capacity than multilevel cell (MLC) solutions. Along with the move to 3D TLC flash, purpose-engineered FCMs utilize
powerful inline, hardware-accelerated data compression and encryption technologies that provide consistent, high-performance compression and encryption across the full range of workloads. The FCMs are designed to support Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-2 Level 1 encryption with IBM Security Key Lifecycle Manager centralized key management and full hot-swap capabilities.
