Nova Professional Series

The Nova professional Series RAID system implement next generation 8Gb FC RAID, 6Gb SAS RAID technology with balanced performance, hybrid interface and rich features, make it a great fit for high performance demanding digital content creating and Enterprise virtualization environments.

The of Nova series Features with 1.2GHz IOP with single upgradable & dual Redundant Controllers. The 2U/3U/4U compact rackmount enclosure hold 12/16/24 x SSD, SAS or SATA drives, and protect all data by RAID levels 0, 1, 3, 5, 6,10. With friendly Graphic User Interface, quick setup procedure would help the non technical users to configure a basic storage setup in less than 5 steps. Moreover, the storage capacity can be scalable by connecting through mini SAS expander to JBOD enclosure.

Nova professional series is the best SAN ready storage solution tailored for multi-streams, multi-clients, uncompressed SD/HD/2K real time production workflow. The high I/O performance and high capacity scalability, would allow managing highly redundancy and provisioning virtualization environment, for mid to large organization on-line data access and backup.
