XS1200 Review (Base Model)
"It certainly is one of the fastest SQL Server storage arrays we have seen so far..."

"Overall the QSAN XCubeSAN XS1200 has a lot of great capabilities to help it make a name for itself in the market. At entry-level midmarket pricing, it outpaced many of the systems we've tested in much higher price brackets."

XS5226D Review
"Overall, the XS5200 did quite well, taking full advantage of the Toshiba PX04 SAS3 SSDs we installed. Performance in total is very impressive, as 6GB/s read and 5GB/s write (64K sequential) out of an SMB SAN is very good."
