Eliminate tape economically Backup and restore at wire speed Reduce space and power requirements

Cost-effective, high performance Nearline storage for Tier-2+ requirements

The S2A Capacity Optimized Storage System is an ideal nearline solution with its leading density, perfomance and resiliency.  Economical and space efficient, each single appliance can scale as large as 960TB in only 2 racks. Deploy SATA-based capacity with confidence as SATAssure provides real-time data integrity safeguards by performing on-the-fly parity checking for all read and write operations; intelligently correcting drive errors to substantially lower replacement actitivies; all while maintaining full system performance.  DirectRAID.protects data in the event of a double disk failure in the same redundancy group while delivering full system bandwidth and ensuring full data availability and zero application performance impact during spurious component events.
