Intelligent & Reliable Drive Management
►
Delivers Enterprise-class data protection at ½ the price
•
Makes large SATA pools reliable (not just less expensive)
•
Works on any class of disk drive
•
Ensures the data you wrote is the data you read, always
►
Key Features
•
Detects and corrects silent data corruption (PCOR & DIF Options)
•
Protects against double disk failures in each tier
•
Superior drive self-healing via automatic power cycling & partial rebuilding
•
Minimal impact during drive failure events
“
DDN Technology is preventative data protection. As our
data stores get bigger, the need for preventative data
