eRacks/NAS36
The eRacks/NAS36 is a 4U Rackmount Storage / NAS / Cloud server with 36 drive bays. The system is 4U (four rack units) in height and has 12 3.5" hotswap SATA / SAS drive bays in front, and 12 more each on both sides, for 36 drive bays total.
This gives us a nice, compact server that's miserly on the rack U's while big on storage - when filled with "Sweet-spot" best-value 18 TB drives, it's 648TB for well under $22,000, when configured. With 26TB drives, it maxes out fully configured at Nearly a Petabyte!, still for well under $32,000.
With the larger, Enterprise-class Helium-filled drives (from WD or Seagate), it saves energy too - and is a truly petascale solution in only 4U of Rackspace.
This rounds out eRacks' line of rackmount multi-drive storage servers and NAS solutions, nicely filling the gap between the 24-drive eRacks/NAS24 and the larger NAS servers, such as the all-front-loading 50-drive eRacks/NAS50, or the 4U top-loading eRacks/NAS60, eRacks' newest flagship storage server.
The eRacks/NAS36 is available with cloud software such as OpenStack, Ceph, and other OSS cloud software, such as Eucaluyptus or CloudStack, as well as best-of-breed Open Source software for Cloud Storage, AI, On-Premise NAS, BigData, Bioinformatics, Genome sequencing, Nearline-storage/ backup, Enterprise NAS, and more – including Hadoop, MooseFS, CIFS, LizardFS, GlusterFS, Ceph, etc – and eRacks is a partner with LizardFS and MooseFS.org.
We will also pre-install any Open-Source NAS software, such as EasyNAS, TrueNAS CORE or SCALE (Formerly FreeNAS), OpenFIler, XigmaNAS (Formerly NAS4Free) and OpenMediaVault, among others - and administrative dashboards and web GUIs are offered on most of these software choices.
Also available is best-of-breed Open Source software for BigData / Cloud storage, NAS, and networking - including Hadoop, MooseFS, CIFS, GlusterFS, etc - and eRacks is a partner with MooseFS.org, as well as with LizardFS.
