The HP ProLiant DL100 G2 Storage Server is an affordable and compact Windows-powered file and print solution that enables small and remote office environments to consolidate multiple direct-attached storage (DAS) installations and management interfaces to a single centralized Network Attached Storage (NAS) device. This solution can also be a cost-effective way to add storage to your network very quickly, or it can be an effective disk-based backup or replication target. It supports multiple file sharing protocols and Windows storage-specific tools that make file share maintenance both easy and powerful. And with the optional Microsoft® iSCSI Software Target, you can upgrade to host block-based storage for Exchange, SQL or other applications. This NAS solution not only aids in consolidation, storage expansion, and cost reduction, but also helps you spend less time and effort deploying and managing file and print services.
