Nova Entry Series

The Nova Entry series is rich in features and has impressive performance which makes it an ideal solution for Video Surveillance applications as well as data management for small to medium businesses.
Featuring the same 1.2GHz IOP as the Nova Professional series, the base Nova Entry Disk Array comes with 6Gb SAS x 2, 1Gb iSCSI x6 channels, single controller configuration. The rackmount enclosures hold 12/16/24 x SAS or SATA drives, and protects all data by RAID levels 0, 1, 3, 5, 6, 10. The friendly Graphic User Interface and quick setup procedure will enable non-technical users to configure a basic storage setup in just 5 simple steps. The storage capacity can be scaled by connecting through a mini SAS expander to a JBOD enclosure.
For customers looking for cost competitive RAID storage solutions, Nova Entry series are the right choice because of their simple yet capable features as well as the high performance and scalable capacity.![]()
