StoreVault S500 to SMB Market: “Yes, we do that”
StoreVault, NetApp’s little brother division that caters to the small-to-medium business (SMB) market makes what I would refer to as a Swiss Army Knife disk storage device: the S500
The S500 can handle both NAS and SAN duties…and it gives you options of iSCSI and Fiber Channel SAN connectivity. And because its part of NetApp, it runs their award-winning DataONTAP NAS operating system (snapshots, replication, thin provisioning etc..)
In keeping with its chartered target of SMB’s, the S500 does tap out at 6TB (3.5TB usable), so look elsewhere for that
massive data mining project. But if your data storage requirements are within those parameters and you’d like a very flexible and powerful solution, the S500 may be the perfect box for you.
Contact us today if you’d like to discuss how the S500 can help you.
