MD3200/MD3220 Series
The Dell™ PowerVault™ MD3200/MD3220 series of storage arrays is a high-performance 6Gb shared
storage solution providing high availability data access. As the next generation of our directly connected
shared Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) arrays, this series offers exceptional flexibility and scalability and is
ideal for consolidating up to four servers in clustered or virtualized environments. The PowerVault
MD3200 array is well suited for deployments where cost per GB is a key requirement. The PowerVault
MD3220 array is an optimal solution when cost/performance (IOPS) is a primary consideration.
