tion makes it possible for you  
to dramatically reduce your  
consumption of raw storage,  
power, cooling, and space.  
Improve your business effi-  
ciency. Clients with different  
storage subsystems in their  
SAN environments can now  
take advantage of the N6000  
series Gateway capabilities to  
help improve business effi-

the latest I/O technologies.  
Respond to growth. Thin provi-  
sioning helps you eliminate  
stranded storage. Preserve  
investments in staff expertise  
and capital equipment with  
data-in-place upgrades to more  
powerful N series systems while  
running the same OS and using  
management complexity.  
the same management tools.  
 
IBM N series offers an innovative thin  
provisioning capability to help you
