Direct Attached Storage (DAS)
DAS units are a great way to add storage to an existing server. Each unit has a built-in RAID controller which supports various RAID levels and is easily configured via software or an LCD interface. When attached to the server, the storage unit is seen as a single drive. Added storage capacity is virtually plug and play!
RAID provides data redundancy which is critical for servers. If a drive fails, you can replace it without having to turn off the system, and the DAS unit will rebuild the data automatically. Please note the units listed below do not include hard drives so you have the flexibility of using drives you already have, or you may buy any brand or size drive appropriate for the particular unit.
Typical Applications for Direct Attached Storage Subsystems: AV Storage, Clustering, Enterprise High Performance Systems, Disk to Disk Backup, High Definition Video Editing
