Mar 5, 2022 - eRacks Systems Offers 1.4+ Petabyte (1440 TB) Data Capacity with eRacks/NAS72 Data Storage Server
Santa Clara, CA - 3/5/2022
eRacks Open Source Systems announced today the availability of its new eRacks/NAS72 high-capacity data storage servers with up to 1440 Terabytes of raw storage space. The California-based firm is a major manufacturer and provider of Open Source based rackmount servers - specifically high-capacity and Petascale data storage servers for Network Attached Storage (NAS) as well as cloud-based applications.
The new eRacks/NAS72 is a 4U rackmount unit that comes with 72 removable drive bays. eRacks Systems is offering these units with combinations of 6, 8, 10,18 and 20 Terabyte capacity hard drives, allowing for a total raw data storage space of up to 1440 Terabytes. 20TB PMR drives are now available, bringing total raw storage to 1.44 Petabytes.
Customers of eRacks Systems can order eRacks/NAS72 to be configured with up to 72 removable 20TB Ultrastar DC HC550 drives bringing the capacity of the unit to 1440 Terabytes. Also, combinations of lower capacity hard drives are possible for lower space requirements and applications. The chassis, eRacks/4U-72RHD, is 35 inches deep and holds 72 3.5-inch drives bays. The unit is controlled by two Intel Xeon E5-2609 v3 processors and two 32GB DDR4 for a total of 64GB of RAM. Configurations up to 6TB of RAM or more are available by custom quote.
eRacks/NAS72 is offered partially populated with lower capacity hard drives in its starter configuration, which offers more affordable pricing options to eRacks Systems customers, and a more accessible entry level.
“The 12 or 14-Terabyte drives are the 'Sweet spot' of $/TB yielding a full Petabye of raw storage - The 20 Terabyte hard drives may be considerably more expensive than lower capacity drives. They may not be the ‘sweet spot’ of cost per Terabyte, but for those users who need every available Terabyte, these drives are certainly an option. Dream big! And we will provide you with storage for your dreams!”
- Joseph Wolff, Founder and CTO, eRacks Systems
