Lacie has introduced a new version of its award-winning Ethernet Disk, a network-attached 19-inch rack-mounted storage device, aimed at small and medium business.
The Ethernet Disk features a capacity increase of up to 6TB. It is powered by the Windows XP embedded operating system that provides all the necessary features for data backup, storage and file-sharing through its Gigabit Ethernet connection.
The Lacie Ethernet Disk can support up to 100 users with customizable access rights to different shares, with up to 25 concurrent users. The Ethernet Disk is compatible with Apple Time Machine, allowing Mac users to take advantage of the continuous data protection the software provides.
The Lacie Ethernet Disk ships with Genie Backup Manager ProTM for Windows and Intego Backup Manager ProTM for Mac for scheduled file backups for workstations.
"Backing up data - even mission-critical data - always boils down to making and storing copies of data, located on your primary storage device, onto a secondary device," said Erwan Girard, LaCie Product Manager. "For this reason, the perfect backup companion for your information system should be kept simple and cost-effective. The Lacie Ethernet Disk offers computer backup and recovery, and backs itself up onto a NAS or DAS, all at the best price-per-terabyte ratio in the market. It is therefore an excellent complement to the complex and expensive technology used in front end storage servers."
The 2 TB drive is priced at $749.99, while the 2 TB and 6 TB drives are priced at $1,099.99 and $1,499.99 respectively.
