SEAGATE DELIVERS STORAGE SIMPLICITY FOR
SMALL BUSINESSES WITH NEW NETWORK STORAGE PORTFOLIO
NAS and NAS Pro Lines Offer New Operating
System and Productivity Apps Optimized for Revenue Growth and
‘Anywhere’ Access to Vital Data
Seagate Technology plc (NASDAQ:STX) today announced a new
portfolio of Networked Attached Storage (NAS) solutions
specifically designed for today’s small businesses. The new
portfolio includes five NAS products in a range of capacities from
2TB to 30TB and performance perfectly suited for the home office to
small businesses with up to 50 employees. The Seagate NAS and NAS
Pro lines set the standard for ease-of-use by introducing a new
intuitive operating system, NAS OS 4, together with hardware
specifically designed for small businesses without dedicated IT
resources.
“Storage is a must have for businesses of today regardless of
their size or industry. So much of what businesses do is now stored
in a digital format, but at the same time storage is an area that
may not be top of mind for many small business professionals. The
irony is that smart storage is so essential to their growth,” said
Ramon Ray of SmallBizTechnology. “It is good to see a company like
Seagate taking the guess work out of network storage solutions and
making it easy to set up and manage for a small business without
dedicated IT staff.”
Industry’s Most Intuitive User Interface
Today’s businesses depend on their documents and data
accessibility to sustain and grow their business. Seagate provides
the tools that a growing business needs to ensure their data is
secure and always available. Building on the success of its
award-winning operating system, Seagate debuts the next generation
with NAS OS 4. Now with a redesigned Device Manager, users can
manage preferences and configure settings from a single location.
It also includes the most demanded features by our customers
including App Manager and Seagate Sdrive™ for remote access.
Designed to be easily up and running without dedicated IT support,
Seagate NAS OS 4 helps small businesses stay organized and focused.
The NAS device management is effortless from a desktop, laptop,
tablet, or even a smartphone. Seagate NAS OS 4 is designed to keep
projects accessible, secure and always available.
Working Together Works Better – Hardware, Software and
Support by Seagate
All products in Seagate’s NAS portfolio are wholly developed and
supported by Seagate, which ensures a level of expertise that is
not delivered when customers are required to source individual
components. Each NAS is populated with Seagate’s best-in-class NAS
HDD drives in capacities up to 5TB. The industry-leading NAS HDDs
are designed specifically for network storage applications, and are
equipped with advanced vibration tolerance and management
capabilities, offering enhanced reliability compared to standard
desktop hard drives. In addition, Seagate tests every product
extensively before being shipped, and backs them with an expert
in-house tech support team.
Easy Remote Access Via Private Cloud
Seagate NAS and NAS Pro provide secure access to files by
creating a private cloud, also enabling access to files from a
centralized location, while providing shared access for clients and
partners through Seagate Sdrive software – a private cloud that
physically resides on Seagate NAS. With Sdrive™, access to your
private cloud is as seamless and intuitive as saving files to an
external drive. Files on Sdrive are also accessible from a
smartphone or tablet with free mobile apps.
“We understand that today’s small businesses can benefit from a
storage solution that is easy to manage and provides 24/7 secure
access to the information that drives their businesses,” said Scott
Horn, vice president of global marketing at Seagate. “From the
individual contractor to the fifty-employee office, Seagate has the
right product to match the needs of any size of small- to
medium-sized business.”
App Manager
Another key feature of Seagate NAS OS 4 is support for add-on
apps from both Seagate and third parties. The Seagate NAS and NAS
Pro will come equipped with five essential apps at launch and more
will be added in the future.
- Seagate Antivirus: an app that scans
the files stored on the NAS to help safeguard against viruses and
malware
- Seagate Surveillance Manager:
compatible with thousands of models of IP cameras, offering event
and schedule-based recording and mobile apps for remote
viewing
- WordPress: a free open-source
publishing platform with sophisticated design features, which
allows one to easily create a blog
- Own Cloud: an app that provides
universal access to one’s files via the web, a computer or from
mobile devices from locations outside of the network
- BitTorrent Sync: a tool to enable
synching and sharing of unlimited files and folders across all
trusted devices in a secure manner
