Details
In
today’s digital era, the majority of new knowledge assets are in
digital form. And keeping these knowledge assets secure and available
has become a major issue. Thecus N4100 is a next generation network
storage appliance designed to tackle this challenge. It provides an
easy-to-use, affordable, and secure solution for storing, sharing and
managing digital data.
N4100 is tailor-made for computer enthusiasts and the small
office/home office (SOHO) users who face the following data storage
issues.
- How could I increase the capacity of my data storage without technical hassle but with an affordable cost?
- What would happen if my hard drive crashes?
- How could I share the data with other people?
- How could I manage the data in a multiple PC environment?
- How could I store and backup the data in a reliable device?
Based on Intel’s I/O processor architecture, N4100 is designed to
offer larger storage space, better data security, higher data access
throughput, but with lower power consumption.

Sharing
Most households and small offices have more than one PC.
However,this multiple PC structure doesn’t allow people to find, share
or consolidate files easily because the data are scattered in different
PCs. In order to solve this problem, N4100 is architected to act as a
central data server. Users using different operation systems are able
to read, write and execute the files saved at N4100 by network. For
example, a secretary saves a document at N4100 for his/her co-workers
to review. His/her co-workers can simply access via network the
document and make comments. For another example, in a home environment,
when kids keep their MP3 songs, video contents and gaming programs at
N4100, they will be able to share and combine their individual digital
collections in a centralized device. Furthermore, they can access their
digital archive via network simultaneously.
Pay as you grow
N4100 emphasizes the pay-as-you-grow model with your business growth
and the expansion of your personal digital archive. You could add hard
drives one by one when the existing capacity is run out*.
For example, you could place two hard disks at N4100 at first because
of budget concern. Later on, when the storage space is not sufficient,
you add another two.When a single Terabyte N4100 is too small to
accommodate your data, you add another N4100 to the existing network,
and then you gain one more Terabyte. Since N4100 is network based, it
grants you unlimited scalability. Using Thecus N4100 as your data
server is the smartest way to minimize IT management and secure your
precious asset.
* for JBOD configuration only
Terabyte serial ATA (SATA) capacity, Gigabit Ethernet connectivity
In order to provide high data reliability and high data throughput,
N4100 adopts the next generation hard drive technology, SATA, and
Gigabit connectivity. With four-bay design, N4100 helps users easily
gain Terabyte-level storage space.
Energy saving
Although Thecus N4100 has terabyte capacity and Gigabit
connectivity, Thecus N4100 is energy-saving. Compared to traditional
file servers, Thecus N4100 saves more than 35% energy. Since Thecus
N4100 is designed as a special purpose appliance focused on network and
storage, unnecessary power consumption is eliminated.
