Dell PowerVault NX300 Network Attached Storage
File sharing and collaboration made simple

Key Benefits:

Simple, Dedicated Data Sharing

This entry-level file-sharing system is easy to manage with its integration of Windows® Storage Server 2008. This specialized operating system helps control growing storage demands by making file storage more efficient. Maintaining productivity is essential for any business, so the NX300 gives disparate users simplified access to files and shares across a network-wide infrastructure, even to remote offices. File shares are easier to locate and more resilient.

The NX300 helps eliminate data clutter by identifying duplicate files, storing one copy and replacing others with pointers. It also has single-management interface that delivers better managed file services across CIFS/NFS and provides improved control and compliance over files, perfect for audit and planning purposes.

Room to Grow Your Business

The PowerVault NX300's efficient file sharing is packaged in small, 1U form factor leaving extra room in your rack for other systems and components. Plus, its maximum 4TB capacity allows plenty of space to grow files and shares. Finally, you can grow the size of your collaborative namespace by adding multiple NX300 systems together using DFS Namespace.

No Wasted Time to Setup or Manage

Avoid the hassle of building a file server from scratch. The PowerVault NX300 is optimized for storing, sharing, and protecting files and is integrated and ready to go out of the box. In fact, the PowerVault NX300 can be ready to share files within minutes. Take full advantage of the Initial Configuration Tasks wizard to streamline the setup process. Also, there is no need to buy additional Client-Access Licenses (CALs) for each user you add to your NX300. Support for multiple users is already built into this file-sharing system.
