Storage and network security applications provider Iomega, an EMC company, has expanded its network solutions portfolio with the launch of a new NAS product.
The company said Iomega StorCenter Pro ix4-100 NAS provides small businesses and remote offices with up to 4TB of networked storage. The four-SATA drive NAS powered by EMC’s Linux-based LifeLine software is designed for cross-platform computer support and downloadable feature upgrades.
Other features include fast data throughput, multiple RAID configurations, RSA based enterprise security protection, a small footprint, Windows active directory support, expandable storage capability, various formats including Fat32, NTFS, or ext2/ext3 formatted hard disks, and a system dashboard. It also includes MozyHome online backup service.
Jonathan Huberman, president of Iomega, said: The ix4 features the EMC LifeLine operating system and incorporates other EMC storage technologies used by the world’s largest organizations. Add-in features such as a media server, hot-swappable drives, Bluetooth and video surveillance capabilities make the ix4 a versatile network storage solution for today’s fast-moving small businesses and remote offices.
The 2TB StorCenter Pro ix4-100 NAS Server is available now for $800. The 4TB version will be available later this month for $1,300.
