Definitions
- Extern Ethernet connected disc unit Indefinitely expandable. Hot-swap technology, no need for downing system while upgrading. Usage as simple as building bricks. Simple, fully automatic, backup function included. Built in WEB and FTP support. Network connected unit, no server or controllers needed. Drivers available for the most popular operating systems and server based environments (WIN9x/ME/NT/Win2000/NetWare/Linux/). Works in an active directory, server based environment as a server "driver”. Mountable as a NFS volume in a UNIX/LINUX based environment.
- the SCSI system works in the same way as IDE, but with today max 15 units.
- the IPDU can work as an automatically backup, by one unit in its set up are made to "backup of xx xx xx xx with yy hours interval, never delete / delete".
- the IPDU As the IPDU is not demanding rack, controller or dedicated computer systems, the IPDU offer a linear investment, totally with out ceiling.
- the IPDU can hereby, fully meet the conditions there are today for storage of the continuously expanding data carrier store, with in the private, business and Internet solutions.
- the IPDU is in addition offering a security which far out exceeds the today known methods for backup, as it is up to the user to decide how many layers of backup he wishes.
- One unit with its own PSU, hard disc, processor, and tree Ethernet ports One unit with its own PSU, hard disc, processor, and tree Ethernet ports.
- the processors flash memory contains code for all necessary functions, to simultaneous functionality of listed functions:
- IP protocol with build in data package engine adding the functionality of:
- the unit can offer its disk space to an computer driver or —
- the unit can offer its disk space to another unit or —
- the unit can offer its disk space to backup another units data.
- the unit is capable of receiving, and add, the offered functions to its own, and offer even larger disk space forward in the system.
- A can be visible disc in system or disk-expander for B or C or D or backup for B or C or D
- B can be visible disc in system or disk-expander for A or C or D or backup for A or C or D
- a or C or D C can be visible disc in system or disk-expander for A or B or D or backup for A or B or D D
- A is the disk seen in the network as a computer drive
- B is disk expander for A, (A is then seen as “bigger” volume)
- D is disk expander for C, then C has capacity to be valid backup of A
- A is the disk seen in the network as a computer drive and D is backup of A
- C is the disk seen in the network as a computer drive and B is backup of D (A has then double backup)
- B is the disk seen in the network as a computer drive
- A is disk expander for B
- D is disk expander for A
- C is disk expander for B
