Seagate IronWolf Health Management for Asustor Data Master 3.0 NAS OS

Asustor, Inc. in collaboration with Seagate Technology plc have announced the availability of IronWolf Health Management for Asustor Data Master (ADM) 3.0.

IronWolf Health Management improves system reliability through comprehensive embedded analysis and recovery software to provide intelligent analysis of drive health that goes beyond traditional diagnostic tools.

“We’re dedicated to bringing specialized solutions to the growing NAS market, and our collaboration with Asustor continues to make this possible,” said Matt Rutledge, SVP, marketing, Seagate.
