Inherently better by design, the LeftHand SAN/iQ® systems are used throughout the world in production environments by companies such as Alcoa, Citigroup, Comcast, Pfizer, Time Warner Cable, and Verizon.

LeftHand Networks is changing the rules of storage networking. With powerful, yet cost-effective iSCSI SANs, end user customers are not constrained by high cost, high maintenance, vendor-specific systems. LeftHand’s storage solutions deliver SANs that are easy-to-grow, easy-to-manage, and designed to meet the most urgent business needs.

  • Scalability: Storage networks scale performance along with capacity, from entry-level 6 TB SATA SANs to enterprise-class 100 TB SAS SANs
  • High Availability: Integrated synchronous and asynchronous replication provide end user customers with anytime, anywhere data access
  • Reliability: SAN/iQ Network RAID spreads multiple copies of data across the network, allowing uninterrupted access to volumes even through the loss of an entire datacenter
  • Performance: iSCSI SANs are delivered on industry standard platforms, allowing LeftHand to focus its expertise on creating best-in-class features that keep SANs at peak performance.

LeftHand Networks’ open approach gives end user customers the freedom to build enterprise-class storage solutions on their choice of hardware. The SAN/iQ platform turns enterprise-class x86 servers like the HP ProLiant or IBM System xSeries into scalable network storage ideal for server consolidation and virtualization projects, Microsoft application environments, and disaster recovery solutions.
