HP StoreEasy 5000 Storage

With the HP StoreEasy 5000 Storage you get a new breed of efficient, secure and highly available network attached storage (NAS) system. It is essential for you to easily and economically support large numbers of users and accommodate their demands to store growing volumes of files. With security built-in you can make sure that your users’ data is protected and available to them when and where they want to access it. Designed as a high availability network attached NAS solution, there are two blade servers clustered together. The clustered servers are connected to a shared SAS storage pool which is RAID protected. With redundant power and cooling built in, it is a very robust storage platform for the most demanding 24 x 7 availability environments. Built on Windows Storage Server 2012 you can provide users with a highly available solution so that their data is always ready when they need it.
