First dual-controller storage from Synology, marketed as iSCSI storage for virtualization hosts. We will test how quickly it switches between controllers and how it recovers back. Perhaps since Synology released its first rackmount NAS, at all press conferences the company has been asked when will they release a 2-controller solution? The manufacturer himself explained for a long time that the company has a High Availability solution for organizing NAS into a cluster, that in the modern ...

QNAP has got very interesting monstrous NAS-s for working with large amounts of data. The storage system under consideration today with a head unit for 24 3.5-inch hard drives makes it possible to pack 384 TB of data into one system and do without expansion shelves at all, which may be quite enough for the needs of a small enterprise. QNAP has got very interesting monstrous NAS-s for working with large amounts of data. The model under review with the long name TS-2483XU-RP is a data storage ...

Aquantia network chips are increasingly being distributed as an expensive home or low-cost business solution for 10-Gigabit networks. We compared the company's youngest chip with Intel's flagship network card when working with file operations, and the results were amazing. The young company Aquantia was not known to anyone 2-3 years ago, and today its network controllers have become a passport to the world of 10-Gigabit networks for thousands of gamers around the world. This brand entered ...

No matter how beautiful IOPS the manufacturers promise us, no matter what synthetic tests show, the real speed of a typical virtual machine depends on how your server is configured and how the application itself works. Let's explore the impact of different types of caching on Synology NAS. Toshiba, a major manufacturer of flash drives and hard drives, forecasts only 10% of corporate data will be stored on SSDs in the year, although it seems that all storage manufacturers have forgotten ...

This file server will be of interest to large companies. It is assembled on the basis of a fast Intel Celeron M processor with a frequency of 1.6 GHz, it has support for a reliable file system ZFS, two network ports with aggregation, the ability to stack and connect via USB to a computer. But the most interesting thing is dynamic iSCSI partitioning, which will save space for iSCSI connections. We have already covered Thecus file servers. This company is interesting for its non-standard ...

In this article, we will look at the advantages offered by RAID arrays and compare four IDE RAID controllers from manufacturers such as 3ware, Adaptec, HighPoint and Promise. Today hard drive manufacturers are very tough competition among themselves. In this struggle, they are forced to increase the volume of their hard drives, releasing larger and larger disks. Unfortunately, the volume of media is often counterbalanced by their reliability. Most HDD manufacturers have already reduced the ...

With this storage system, you can create a 2-node Failover Virtualization Cluster in one box. This model is designed for video surveillance, for installations on hundreds of IP cameras, for storing hundreds of terabytes of data and for analyzing video recordings. We tested it using the Macroscop software. Video surveillance is one of the main driving forces in the storage market. The decline in the cost of IP cameras has led to the fact that today they are installed in hundreds, often next ...
