VMware Ready
Reliable, High-performance Network Storage for Business-critical Applications
The ideal platform for server virtualization projects
2U, 12-bay rack-mountable unified network storage with 10 Gigabit networking for best-in-class performance
High performance and reliability with redundant power supplies, built-in replication, integrated backup, and offsite options for data protection
Cross-platform support for Windows®, Macintosh® and UNIX®/Linux systems
Support for both database and server virtualization applications
The ReadyNAS 4200 is a 2U 12-bay storage system designed for businesses needing high-quality, high-performance, and affordable data storage capacity. The 4200 is the most powerful ReadyNAS platform, with 10 Gigabit support that delivers faster data throughput for high-intensity applications. The ReadyNAS unified architecture solves numerous data management problems with a single system, making complex and fast growing storage needs manageable and affordable. Now you can upgrade and expand your data storage to match your business growth without breaking the bank.
Store
Centralize data from your local systems into one single storage device, reducing management overhead and instantly increasing reliability. Capacity can be added with zero downtime, and ReadyNAS supports both file sharing and server virtualization applications like Microsoft Hyper-V™, VMware® or Citrix XenServer™.
Share
Serve files to Windows, Macintosh and Linux/UNIX users simultaneously. Access data no matter where you are — from multiple computers, on the road, or in an alternate office location. Consolidate and eliminate file servers while hosting virtual machines at the same time. Elegantly manage capacity across your servers and clients simultaneously.
The ReadyNAS Remote feature means drag-and-drop over a secure connection between any computer and your ReadyNAS. No more firewall, VPN or awkward Web-based remote access solutions.
Protect
Successful businesses understand that lost information means lost revenue. Multiple layers of protection are built into every ReadyNAS, including drive fault tolerance, redundant power supply, online backups (snapshots), and secure offsite replication to another ReadyNAS system. A ReadyNAS revolutionizes backup and recovery times and can replace tape completely, making offsite replication and backup a complete, affordable and timely reality for small business users. And support for Symantec agents makes integration with existing backup software simpler and faster.
The ReadyNAS Vault option automatically preserves multiple archive copies in a datacenter. This centralized, set-and-forget choice means no more dedicated servers, licenses or failed jobs, and captures as little or as much as you choose. Recovery can be done from any network location and is as simple as using a Web browser!
