Lenovo ThinkSystem DE Series Reviews

I use Lenovo ThinkSystem DE Series to replace the old storage in our infrastructure. Additionally, I use it in customer infrastructures to migrate from the old storage to the new one.

On the M storage, I find the best features to be deduplication and compression. On the DE storage, the most valuable feature, in my opinion, is the performance.

The solution is reliable in terms of performance.

They should include a snapshot feature for the solution.

We use Lenovo ThinkSystem DE Series for video surveillance. The DE, particularly, is for archiving targets, backing up targets, and, to a degree, virtualization.

Lenovo ThinkSystem DE Series is quite an elementary box, no frills. It does not have all the functionality of the DM but it is acceptable, it does its task. It integrates pretty well.

We use the DE series, the 2000 and DE4000. It's DE, All-Flash storage.

We use Lenovo with the VMware solution. We have VMware with virtual machines and the production storage is the Lenovo DE4000 Hybrid. The solution for backup is Lenovo Storage 2000.

For the moment, we use the solution in respect of our three hosts, for VMware and for storage.

The VMware should be addressed and the solution should have more storage, although I am not in need of the latter or of any other product at present. 

The solution could be more scalable, although it suits our present needs. 

We sell the Lenovo ThinkSystem DE 4000 or 6000 series storage arrays. The clients that we sell the products to are mostly manufacturers and the use case for ThinkSystem is always production for storing and operating their virtual environment, which means the units are almost always used for VMware. It is just typical storage for production and virtual machines.  

It does not improve the way we function as we use it with clients. It gives us another product to offer to fill particular client needs.  

We use this solution to house our VMware Virtual Machines. We have three data centers, and I am responsible for troubleshooting the environment. 

We are currently using the on-premise deployment model, although we are starting our migration to AWS. I expect that it will take no more than six or seven months.

This solution is good for virtualization and meets the need for CPU and RAM requirements. It is suitable for mid-range and big business.

I do the initial configuration of Lenovo ThinkSystem DE Series and then the customer manages the whole storage solution.

The most valuable features of the Lenovo ThinkSystem DE Series are the dual controllers, available installation documentation, and the option of multiple host bus adapter interfaces.

We use Lenovo ThinkSystem DE Series for small businesses, primarily for VM workloads, as well as for block storage.

Lenovo ThinkSystem DE Series is simple to use. It is also simple to manage.
