    AssuredSAN 5000 Pro Series: Seriously Smart, Real-Time Tiered Storage for the Mid-range

With RealStor™, businesses gain the advantage of very high performance SSDs, using them to their maximum benefit, while storing less frequently accessed data on slower, but much less expensive, hard disk drives. Designed for the midrange market, the AssuredSAN Pro 5000 Series is a high-performance, highly available, fully integrated storage solution that delivers consistently faster access to current data with built-in, real-time, autonomic tiered storage and virtualization.

The 4000 Series supports 5200 MB/s sequential reads, and 3000 MB/s sequential writes, ideal for HD, 2K, 4K, and 3D workflows.
