The Siafu Swarm 100 IP Storage Appliance delivers from 750 GB (1 TB raw capacity) to 2.25 TB (3 TB raw capacity) of RAID 5-protected network storage to small and mid-sized businesses ready to implement entry level Storage Area Networks (SAN).

      The Swarm 100 offers storage consolidation, NAS functionality, centralized management, encryption, replication and advanced data protection using the latest in snapshot technology and integrated backup in a 1U, rack-mounted appliance.  It installs seamlessly in Microsoft Windows®, Linux and other server environments.
 

      The Siafu Swarm 100 is simply and easily managed through a graphical user interface that controls the creation, management and protection of virtual storage volumes, access control and security. It ends forever the need to manage multiple storage devices and products.

       By installing your in-place backup software directly on the Swarm 100 appliance, you can easily and automatically back up your SAN volumes using VSS-integrated snapshots and the latest D2D and D2D2T techniques. No more daily grind of managing networks, servers, and applications just to get the backups done. With the Siafu Swarm 100, backup has never been easier and your critical data has never been safer.

        If your data needs more protection than RAID can provide and non-stop availability, the data on your Swarm 100 can be replicated to another Swarm 100 appliance allowing offsite storage.

         And, as icing on the cake, if you need the ultimate in data protection and security, Siafu provides a no-performance-impact hardware data encryption.

The ideal IP SAN entry point available today from Siafu.
