Enabling and Protecting High Capacity SATA Storage

SATAssure Plus data protection technology enables enterprise-caliber data availability while delivering full system – making SATA disk drives a truely viable option for business-critical storage applications. SATAssure features real-time parity checking for both read and write operations as well as partial drive rebuild capability (especially important for large capacity SATA disk drives) to ensure optimum data availability levels.

As the core operating system of the S2A, DirectOS features real-time DirectRAID storage. This purpose-built system leverages high-speed FPGA parity calculation accelerators to deliver optimium large file data throughput and write performance that is equal to the S2A's read performance. Configured in RAID 6 8+2 parity sets, this no-compromise double-disk failure protection is essential for mission-critical environments requiring cost-effective SATA technology.

Ideal for Space/Power/Cooling Constrained Data Centers

Superior high-density storage array configurations from DataDirect Networks hold as many as 1200 drives in two racks (up to 100.8TB/ft2). With high-density S2A SATA configurations, environmental infrastructure costs are reduced without compromising performance or data availability.

Turn-Key Scalable NAS Solutions

Easy-to-use & easy-to-scale – the S2A Clustered NAS Solution scales up to 16 clustered S2A NAS servers. All of these NAS heads are capable of presenting petabytes of globally-addressable S2A Storage at multiple GB/s. Learn more >>
