NAS White Papers

The University of South Carolina Spartanburg (USCS)

Overview The University of South Carolina Spartanburg (USCS), one of eight USC campuses, was founded in 1967. Today, USC Spartanburg is a rapidly growing campus in the USC system, providing higher education to nearly 5,000 students. USC Spartanburg's growth is guided by a strategic plan— and part of that plan calls for robust IT integrated into every aspect of the university. The challenge for USC Spartanburg: offer better e-mail service to faculty, staff, and students; improve network speed and performance by migrating from a network attached storage (NAS)system to a storage area network (SAN). To do this, USC Spartanburg standardized on Dell PowerEdge servers and Microsoft Exchange 2003 for an e-mail system; and migrated to Dell/EMC CX200 SAN with more than 3 TB of storage capacity. As a result, USC Spartanburg sees improved communications with faculty and students; wider student adoption of university-offered e-mail; easier user management; and savings in printing and mailing costs.
