Infortrend Launches EonNAS Pro and EonNAS 1000 Series to Meet File Sharing and Data Storage Demand of SMB and SOHO Users

Key System Features Include De-duplication for Optimized Resource Utilization and ZFS for End-to-End Data Integrity

Sydney Australia, January 13, 2012– Network Storage Solutions

Infortrend® today announced two new NAS product lines in its EonNAS family of unified storage solutions, the EonNAS Pro and EonNAS 1000 Series. The new solutions enable SMBs and SOHO users to serve file-based and block-based applications with a single device and achieve easy file sharing between different workstations in the office with various data backup options available, ie PC and server data can be backed up on the EonNAS Pro and EonNAS 1000 systems (equipped with Intel processors) while EonNAS data can be backed up to external disk drives via USB or eSATA connections. The EonNAS Pro Series offers tower systems that can be set up in less than 15 minutes and are extremely easy to manage. Expand on this and provide more info on how businesses will benefit. Thomas Kao, Director of Product Planning at Infortrend, stated, “With the EonNAS Pro and EonNAS 1000 Series, Infortrend adds a new dimension to the SMB and SOHO segments of the NAS market with features that previously were only seen in enterprise solutions, such as de-duplication and ZFS. Small businesses and offices now have access to some of the most advanced technologies the NAS market has to offer - at prices they can afford.” Available models include the EonNAS Pro 200, 500 and 800, featuring two, five and eight bays respectively, as well as the EonNAS Pro 850, which features eight bays and offers enhanced performance with an Intel dual-core 3.3GHz processor. The EonNAS 1000 Series offers systems with industry-standard rackmount form factors. Available models include the EonNAS 1100 featuring four bays.

Data storage on the new product solutions is enhanced by several advanced features, including de-duplication for optimized resource utilization and end-to-end data integrity. Data de-duplication can benefit a great number of applications, in particular backup and virtualization applications. With storage space savings of up to 90%, the technology enables users to achieve significant cost reductions. The ZFS file system achieves end-to-end data integrity through a hierarchical checksum mechanism, which weeds out silent data corruption phenomena that go undetected in other file systems.
