Support for multiple levels of RAID provides continuous data protection and increased fault tolerance and data availability.
- RAID 0 combines all drives into a single array offering maximum capacity with no redundancy
- RAID 1 mirrors two arrays, creating an exact copy of data for fault tolerance
- RAID 5 stripes the data across all four drives, interspersing parity data to provide an efficient blend of fault tolerance and storage capacity
REMOTE FILE ACCESS
TeraStation 5000N WSS offers multiple ways to remotely access and share your important data for enhanced collaboration and productivity. With WebAccess and FTP/SFTP servers, you can securely access and share files with anyone outside the local network. Trusted recipients can access selected files from anywhere over the Internet and with WebAccess files can also be accessed remotely from tablet and smartphone devices.
HOT SWAP HARD DRIVES
TeraStation 5000N WSS's hot swap feature allows a user to replace a hard drive in the event of failure without powering down the device. Simply remove the defective drive, insert the new drive and the data rebuilds while still being available to clients on the network with zero downtime.
STORAGE VIRTUALIZATION
Configure TeraStation 5000N WSS as an iSCSI target to add affordable virtualized storage to your business network. Storage virtualization serves to decrease IT spending by maximizing the resources offered by modern servers while providing affordable server scalability and reliability. A virtualized environment removes a significant amount of server dependence, shifting the burden to the storage devices.
CLOUD STORAGE BACKUP
Backup mission-critical data to any cloud provider compatible with Windows® for offsite backup. Offsite backup adds an extra layer of protection against data loss due to environmental disasters or equipment failures at your primary location.
