Performance
The ESAS2800 has many unique features to maximise performance and ensure your data is transferred to the peripheral devices in the shortest possible time. With its load balancing MPIO* enabled Ethernet ports combined with its unique non-blocking data cache module, the ESAS2800 provides up to 200MB/s sustained throughput.
 
Recoverability
Ensuring that your data reaches its final destination is important these days with tight backup windows. With Error Recovery Level 2 support, the ESAS2800 can continue to receive data even if one of the Ethernet connections is disconnected.
 
Ease of Use
With every increasing pressure on IT staff, there is less time to spend on learning and managing new products and therefore, it is critical that new products are intuitive and easy to use. Avax works closely with its customers to ensure this is always the case. 
 
Environmental
The ESAS2800 uses the latest power supply technologies with typical efficiencies of 95%, which minimise electrical power consumption and heat output. 

VMware®
The ESAS2800 is perfect for use with the latest version of VMware®, which no longer supports directly attached SCSI and SAS tape drives.  The ESAS2800 makes it easy to use SAS drives.
