Fast, Reliable, Scalable,
Easy Administration, Multi-Protocol

Today an organization’s ability to compete depends upon its ability to access and manage information. Rapid data access with fast response times is becoming more critical each day as data volumes increase. NASengine provides a reliable, cost-effective, and scalable storage solution in only 1U of rack space. Ultra160 SCSI connections provide connectivity for either SIngle-Ended or LVD devices. Designed for simplicity and ease of use, NASengine provides UNIX and Windows systems fast data access with appliance reliability. Powered by the SPANStor realtime microkernel, NASengine appliance are dedicated to one function: delivering data. Built using reliable appliance technology, NASengine can easily be expanded to over 2TB of RAID storage and supports optional Gigabit Ethernet SCSI interface. No client licenses are required: NASengine supports UNIX, Microsoft Windows, and HTTP concurrently.

NFS, CIFS/SMB, Web Admin,
Integrated Backup, Unmatched Data Response

NASengine provides an open storage architecture that scales to meet your needs. NASengine connects to industry standard SCSI drives and RAID controllers. Available with two internal SCSI drives, and up to 2 Terabytes of external storage, NASengine delivers the performance todays infrastructures demand. NASengine comes standard with an integrated 10/100MB Fast Ethernet connection and supports multiple Ultra-160 Wide SCSI interface channels using powerful realtime software that dynamically optimizes data storage for maximum performance. A Gigabit Ethernet option delivers ultimate data response and performance. Each NASengine data appliance includes concurrent support for NFS, SMB/CIFS, and HTTP protocols. Backup support for SCSI tape devices is standard, removing backup data traffic from your network and speeding backup times.
