PRODUCT OVERVIEW
General Information
The RoHS compliant Plasmon Archive Appliance Express
TM
is a Network Attached Storage (NAS)
device providing long term storage for archived and fixed content data. It combines the performance
benefits of network attached RAID with the reliability and robustness of Plasmon UDO
®
(Ultra Density
Optical) optical storage. The appliance includes a two drive SATA RAID cache, a UDO drive for
archiving to media, and an embedded server running enterprise class storage management software.
The Plasmon Archive Appliance Express is a low cost alternative to the larger automated Plasmon
Archive Appliance products. The Archive Appliance Express, like other members of the Plasmon
Archive Appliance family, can handle 200 million files. This appliance uses the same UDO media as
the larger systems, enabling a later upgrade if required. It is very compact, and can be rack mounted.
