With data transfer speeds of up to 92MB/s critical business data can be managed, stored and backed up quickly, efficiently and securely.
The TeraStation III iSCSI Desktop and 1U Rackmount comes fully populated with four drives, providing RAID 0, 1, 5, 10 and standard o ensure data is continuously protected. The desktop unit is available in capacities of 2TB and 4TB, whilst the 1U Rackmount unit is available in 2TB, 4TB, 6THB and 8TB.
Paul Hudson, Northern European Sales Director, Buffalo Technology, said: “The potential for iSCSI within small and medium sized business environments is enormous. The TeraStation III iSCSI will allow organisations to back up all their data and make it appear as just another drive on the server. The beauty of iSCSI is that you can aggregate a lot of different devices into one logical volume and for IT managers this makes life infinitely easier and cheaper than backing up to the primary storage tier. For companies with 3 or more storage devices, RAID 5 can be applied ensuring high levels of data redundancy in a very cost effective way.
