Model overview

Product information

With the Storage Spaces Direct technology (in short: S2D), which is included in the Datacenter version of Windows a cluster can be configured as a CIFS/SMB file server. A common file system is created across all nodes, in which the hard disks are mirrored in groups of two or three.
On the one hand, this achieves very high availability, on the other hand, performance increases with each node. In addition, the clients can access the shares equally through all nodes and thus use the full network bandwidth. Another advantage: Since the licenses are are not calculated according to capacity, the cluster can be expanded into the petabyte range as required without incurring further capacity licensing costs. Thanks to NVMe cache SSDs, even high-capacity nearline SAS disks with high capacity are sufficient.
