These offer advances in performance and fault tolerance for SMBs and enterprise customers.

Full RAID-50 support is available in the following NAS devices: N6850, N7510, N8850, N8900, N10850, N12000 N12000PRO, N16000, and N16000PRO.

In addition, all devices with 8 bays or more, also support RAID-60.

For ultra high speed connectivity, 10GbE cards are supported. Maximum capacity starts at 24TB in the entry-level N6850, and ranges up to 2.5PB for N12000PRO and N16000PRO systems with additional daisy-chained Thecus D16000 DAS units.

For ease-of-use and maximum uptime, standard features in NAS devices include OLED touch panel display, web and mobile administration, HDMI output, and USB 3.0.

New Kind of RAID
RAID-50 combines the advantages of RAID-5 and -0, to surpass the performance of both of these lower RAID levels. RAID-50 brings improved read speeds, faster write speeds, improved fault tolerance, reduced access time in random access operations, and greater storage capacity. RAID-60 combines the best of RAID-6 and -0, to improve further on these advances.

Compared to RAID-10, RAID-50 and -60 require less overhead storage capacity,. Therefore, they cut system costs, power usage, and physical space demands, while still retaining the ability to survive multiple drive failures that would wipe out lesser RAID systems. The greater fault tolerance of RAID-50 and -60 also means little or no loss of performance while a failed drive is swapped out and restored.

SMB and enterprise firms have long been looking for a NAS solution that leverages the latest innovations to combine reliability, performance and cost effectiveness in a single device. By being the first to bring RAID-50 and RAID-60 to the NAS device market, we believe we have finally met this growing demand,” said Florence Shih, GM, Thecus. “We’re already seeing great interest from our SMB and Enterprise partners.
