Thecus 1U4200XXX Rackmount NAS

The Thecus Technology Corp.‘s 1U4200XXX NAS protects  data with RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, or JBOD.

Hot swapping in a new disk or two will keep your data protected and readily available. The 1U4200XXX’s iSCSI stacking function makes it easy to add new NAS to your rack at any time. With stacking, up to 6 1U4200XXX NAS can be accessed through the same IP address for a  total capacity of 72TB.

The 1U4200XXX also has the power to deal with this storage space with its Intel Atom D525 processor and 1GB of DDR3 memory.

The 1U4200XXX also sports Thecus’s firmware version 5.0. The new firmware supports the EXT4 Linux file system, which offers improvements including increased speed, support for volumes up to 1 exabyte and backward compatibility for a  transition from your old file system.

The new firmware also has Thecus’s  new photo server, Piczza. Piczza lets you manage, organize, and share your photo libraries with a point-and-click interface. Uploading photo albums to social networks such as Facebook is done with a single click and privacy settings are simple to adjust.
