Adaptec

® Snap Server ™ 520

Storage performance with flexible capacity expansion

The Adaptec Snap Server 520 combines bestin-class performance with optional capacity expansion that helps you maximize your storage budget. With legendary Snap Server ease of use and operation, an integrated suite of data protection software, and scalability to

26TB, it is ideal for any size company that needs cost-effective, yet scalable data storage for its growing business.

Best-in-class performance

The Snap Server 520 is built on a 64-bit system architecture with AMD Opteron™ technology and 512MB of memory for fast throughput. It provides cost-effective Serial

ATA (SATA) disk drives and with GuardianOS™ software it beats the competition with the fastest random data access speeds.

Availability

The Snap Server 520 integrates availability features rarely found in a valuebased storage solution, including Ethernet teaming failover,

(combining two Ethernet ports on a single address, which allows a path to fail without taking down the network), hot-swappable drives, and the ability to boot from any drive.

Another rarely found feature is support for both four drives and dual power supplies in a 1U system.

High scalability

The Snap Server 520 easily grows as your data grows. Start with your choice of a 1TB or 2TB unit, and as needs change add up to four Adaptec SANbloc S50 JBOD arrays, to a maximum of 26TB. With Instant Capacity

Expansion (I.C.E.) the new capacity is instantly available, without the traditional

RAID reconfiguration downtime.

Block and file data storage iSCSI target support built into the latest version of the award-winning GuardianOS platform allows you to store database, email, and other block data on the same server where you store file data. GuardianOS also provides automatic cross-platform file sharing,

Unicode support, global hot spare support, and enhanced quota management.

Integrated data protection

The Snap Server 520 includes a complete suite of data protection software. It integrates a Workgroup Edition of BakBone NetVault

Server, which includes a free upgrade to a

500GB Virtual Tape Library; CA eTrust

Antivirus Software, and support for third-party backup agents. Optional Snap Enterprise

Data Replicator software family provides advanced data protection, movement, and management for any business, while the optional S2S Synchronization v2 software provides basic replication. Optional

StorAssure Personal Edition software provides automated, easy-to-use, client backup for desktop and laptop systems.

Centralized management

Simple installation and browser-based management make Snap Servers ideal for sites with little or no IT support staff. Snap

Server Manager software consolidates the management of multiple units into a single console.
