Network-attached storage (NAS) is a dedicated disk storage device that is set up with its own network, providing file-based data storage services to other devices on the network, allowing both application programming and files to be served faster because they are not competing for processor resources.

The Nexsan NST Hybrid Storage system simultaneously supports Fibre Channel, iSCSI, NFS, CIFS, SMB and FTP protocols within a single storage operating system leveraging DRAM and SSDs to create a caching tier called FASTier™.
With FASTier, Nexsan NST Hybrid Storage System is able to support the most demanding block-level SAN and file-level NAS workloads within one system, effectively solving your SAN versus NAS debate.
Nexsan NST6000 : Enterprise Classs Unified Hybrid Storage- fully unified, enterprise-class, unified hybrid storage solution that simultaneously supports block and file traffic eliminating the need for organizations to invest in separate SAN and NAS storage systems. The NST6000 unified storage system is the newest member of the NST family, offering new high performance controllers and an expanded front-end FASTier™ caching engine connected to efficient E-Series storage arrays of NL-SAS / Performance SAS drives or to compact NST224X storage enclosures of 2.5″ Performance SAS drives.
Nexsan NST6000M:Unified Hybrid Metro Storage Cluster is an integrated high availability and disaster recovery solution that extends data replication and failover capability from within a data center to remote sites. The NST6000MC metro storage cluster system is a unified storage system that supports both SAN and NAS protocols while leveraging the power of solid-state storage to accelerate the read performance of the underlying SAS and SATA drives housed in efficient Fibre Channel-connected E-Series storage arrays.
Nexsan NST5000 : Unified Hybrid Storage for the Mid-Market organizations struggling with storage scalability for extreme data growth, applications with high performance storage requirements and/or the storage bottleneck created by virtualized environments. The NST5000 unified hybrid storage system features FASTier caching acceleration technology that leverages a modest amount for DRAM and SSD to exponentially increase the performance of underlying SAS and SATA spinning disks housed in efficient E-Series storage arrays or in NST224x and NST5100X storage enclosures
Nexsan NST4000 : Fully unified hybrid storage solution for mid-sized organizations. NST4000 features FASTier™ caching acceleration technology. It is fully unified with NAS, iSCSI, and now FC support. NST provides organizations with a single unified hybrid storage solution that can flex with their mixed application performance needs and is more efficient in its use of high performance technologies with the ability to non-disruptively scale capacity and processing using Nexan’s experience as a provider of industry leading high-density, highly-reliable storage.

Network Attached Storage
SnapServer DX1: Built upon the award winning GuardianOS, the SnapServer DX1 is the first storage system that you do not have to provision. The 1U, 4-drive SnapServer DX1 supports DynamicRAID for seamless storage expansion by adding or replacing hard drives as capacity requirements change. The SnapServer storage volumes can grow or shrink dynamically within the storage pool without IT intervention, preventing costly provisioning errors and unnecessary upgrades.
SnapServer DX2 : The SnapServer DX2 is a high performance, scalable NAS server; and the first storage system in its space that you do not have to provision. With DynamicRAID, hard drives can be added or replaced at any time to grow existing storage pools. Volumes grow automatically as drives are added, simplifying the management and reducing the time required to adapt to changing storage requirements.
Clustered Network Attached Storage
SnapScale X4 : The SnapScale X4 from Overland Storage is a clustered NAS solution that solves the problems of traditional storage by enabling organizations with rapid or unpredictable data growth to scale to high density capacity and performance infinitely without adding management complexity. Built on Overland Storage RAINcloud™ OS technology, SnapScale eliminates islands of storage, enabling easy and affordable scaling without having to predict capacity in advance. Offering user selectable levels of data redundancy, SnapScale writes data across multiple nodes and drives simultaneously for instant protection and high availability by ensuring no single point of failure ever exists. The SnapScale hardware architecture and “single pane of glass” management creates a consistent user experience while both managing the existing Global Namespace and scaling storage as needed, without additional layers of administration.
