We love to discuss the latest storage technology
As a vendor neutral data storage integrator, we will guide you through the process of reviewing storage technology and help you determine your actual needs. We can help you to understand how you would benefit from using NVMe SSD drives on your hosts, or how you could reduce raw capacity needs through efficient data reduction technology. Just ask!
High density storage systems
We supply a range of extremely high density, affordable, SAN and JBOD enclosures allowing you to make the most of your available rack space and reduce power and cooling requirements.
SAS JBOD enclosures
A comprehensive range of affordable 6Gb/s and 12Gb/s SAS JBOD disk expansion enclosures, ideal for Windows Server 2012 and all other software defined or scale-out storage projects requiring external capacity.
Storage Area Network (SAN)
VMware certified Fibre Channel and iSCSI storage, with advanced data management features including SSD caching, tiering, and enterprise levels of performance and availability.
On-premise private cloud (object storage)
On-premise S3 compliant private cloud storage systems built upon object storage. Great for those who wish to work autonomously or cannot store data with externally managed cloud storage providers. Scalability is at the heart of every solution we provide.
Shared accelerated storage
Access and process data faster using the latest architecture designed to accelerate application performance and reduce latency. Utilising NVMe storage, we custom build scalable software defined appliances sized for your needs.
Unified (NAS/SAN/Object)
Multi protocol support including file, block and object storage for storing huge amounts of data. You can consolidate all of your storage requirements into an easy to scale-out system.
Direct Attached Storage (DAS)
Add affordable JetStor 12Gb/s SAS RAID storage arrays to provide external storage for your server. Configured with high-capacity NL-SAS or fast drives, it's a low cost way to expand capacity.

How we can help you
Solution integration
Perhaps you just need to buy some affordable disk storage to add capacity to your existing environment. We'll help you to select the most suitable hardware platform. If you need a little more help, we can architect a fully integrated solution. Our experienced, friendly, technical sales team is always here to to assist you.
Bespoke product design
If a product is not available off the shelf then we also provide the capability to integrate a solution through our ability to bring together products and services from our vendor partners, customise Component Off The Shelf (COTS) technology, or design a bespoke piece of hardware or software to really bring your project to life.
Adding value to your purchase
Once we've presented you with some options, or made a recommendation on what you should buy, we will negotiate the best deal with the manufacturer for you. This will help you to reduce your capital expenditure and increase the return on your investment. If you can't find what you're looking for here, why don't you discuss your requirements with us?
Vendor neutral
We have long established relationships with industry leading manufacturers and continuously review the latest disruptive technology from innovative start ups to ensure we're ahead of the game. The most important thing you need to know is we're vendor neutral. That means we won't ever push unsuitable technology on you.
Feedback from some of the projects we have delivered
Large-scale archival storage of digital objects
Helping The British Library build a large-scale digital preservation system.
Our procurement was conducted using the procedures appropriate for a UK Government body. After careful consideration of the sixteen responses that we received we awarded the tender to VSPL, who proposed a solution using JetStor disk arrays.
Technology Watch Report - Digital Preservation Coalition
High-capacity Network Attached Storage (NAS) for digital forensic investigation
Helping Metropolitan police to protect and process evidence affordably.
Simply, we were looking to acquire as much storage, at the best price possible, and got the best deal with JetStor out of all the manufacturers we approached. VSPL also had a good understanding of our requirements and sold us the best, not the most expensive, equipment to meet our needs. We have also enjoyed excellent after sales service.
