The 3500 can be equipped with up to 10TB’s of on-line NomadicVI Fiber RAID storage as well as a Nomadic series 40 tape (8TB) Altrium (LTO) Archival solution.

The Metropolis Advantage: GVS’ mid to high-end servers offer unique advantages to workgroups by accelerating their workflow, vastly increasing their productivity, greatly reducing their down-time, and enabling easier collaboration. GVS’ Metropolis solutions have all the benefits/availability of the SAN and NAS topologies but introduce and integrate new technologies which allow lower cost, more flexible upgrades and client additions (no need to spend $1,000.00 or more to add new workstations), and intuitive, secure system administration and management. Best of all, the Metropolis solution can integrate with your legacy systems; so you can continue to utilize your current investments.
