Dell targets workgroups with new NAS device

Dell has introduced a new a network attached storage (NAS) server designed to help small businesses, corporate workgroups and branch offices address increasing data storage needs.

The PowerVault 745N provides capacity of up to 4TB of external SCSI-attached storage and offers customers a choice of Intel Celeron or Pentium 4 processor with speeds up to 3.2 GHz and storage capacity ranging from 160GB to 4TB, ensuring that storage systems can scale to accommodate business growth. 

It also comes with software options that help ease system administration and increase data protection.  For example, customers can take Snapshot Copies of their data, a critical data protection feature that allows them to quickly revert back to previous versions of data in the case of software issues or accidental file deletion.

Dell status reporting tools and web-based management tools provide real-time system utilisation and performance information and enable remote monitoring from a central console. 

"Our customers continue to ask for flexible, affordable storage servers that offer enterprise capabilities," said Simon Johnson, director of enterprise solutions for Dell Australia and New Zealand. "The Dell PowerVault 745N delivers on all of this and more - for example deployment has been simplified to take as little as 15 minutes."
