Flexible, Versatile and Reliable Network

With an extensive range of hard drive modes (Standard, JBOD, RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, 1+0), users can choose the configuration best suited to their needs. Standard mode creates two separately accessible hard drives. JBOD combines both drives to create a single, easy to use volume. RAID 0 combines both drives in a “striped” configuration, which provides maximum performance. RAID 1 creates a copy of your data on both drives, providing maximum protection. RAID 5 combines space from three of your hard drives and uses the fourth drive as a parity drive. RAID 10 protects data against loss of non-adjacent disks and uses the disk striping technique to speed up operation when retrieving data from disk storage. The DNS-340L is hot swap enabled meaning you can easily replace a failed drive and your data will automatically be copied to the new drive, allowing the ShareCenter+ to return to its full level of protection and ensuring your files remain safe.

The DNS-340L supports the iSCSI protocol for data transfer over local networks. Have high-speed, secure access to your ShareCenter+ across multiple servers and virtual machines, with redundancy protection to keep your shared data available even when unexpected failures occur. The iSCSI protocol provides a fast, secure, low-cost alternative to traditional fibre channels by utilising existing IP network infrastructure. Ideal for networks running multiple application servers which require centralised storage, the DNS-340L’s iSCSI feature helps you manage your business storage needs more effectively and efficiently, while saving costs on dedicated network infrastructure.
