Case Study: Mr. T Carting achieves high-availability failover clustering and cost savings with StarWind Software (VSAN)

Mr. T Carting creates a high availability failover cluster using existing hardware and saving a budget with StarWind

Mr. T Carting Corporation is a family‑owned recycling and waste management company serving all five boroughs of New York City since 1947. The IT environment relied on standalone Microsoft Hyper‑V hosts that left virtual machines vulnerable to failure, and the company needed a cost‑effective high‑availability solution that would use existing hardware.

Mr. T deployed StarWind Virtual SAN to build a 2‑node high‑availability failover cluster on its current servers, avoiding a costly hardware refresh. The solution was quick to install, delivered improved performance and the required redundancy, and — as IT consultant Richard Papp noted — offered the lowest cost and least disruption by eliminating a big hardware repurchase.
