Overview
ExtremeStor-iNAS integrates Dual Intel® Xeon™ 2.4Ghz processors for maximized computing power over a dual gigabit network interface, Linux minimized OS on a solid state flash disk for ultimate reliability, and comes standard with Ultra 320 SCSI, or the option to add Fibre Channel HBA’s for even greater scalability.
Featuring three hot-swappable power supplies and three hot-swappable fans, the ExtremeStoriNAS is well-equipped to safeguard small, medium and even large businesses against downtime and critical data loss.
A vast improvement over IDE disk drive-based solutions, SATA offers a faster, more efficient transfer rate of 150 Mbyte/s and connects the drive directly to the host unlike the slower shared connection of standard IDE drives.
For environments requiring even greater storage capacity, ExtremeStor-iNAS offers virtually unlimited scalability through the attachment of additional arrays via the external SCSI connection and/or the optional Fibre Channel connections.
At a cost of less than $14,000 for 6TB of storage, ExtremeStor-iNAS offers one of the lowest costs per gigabyte in the industry. Easy to install, these versatile solutions can be deployed in minutes. To simplify maintenance and provide centralized control of backup, restore, and upgrade tasks, ExtremeStor-iNAS can also be remotely managed through any standard web interface.
Providing unlimited scalability options, ExtremeStor-iNAS allows IT administrators to manage growing amounts of data more efficiently by expanding to meet storage requirements as needed.
