Multiple RAID

N8800 supports multiple RAID volumes on one system. So, you can create RAID 0 for your non-critical data, and create RAID 5 for mission-critical data. Create the RAID levels depending on your needs.

To configure RAID modes on the N8800, refer to Chapter 4: System Management > Storage Management > RAID List.

Dual Mode Support

N8800 is not only a file server, but it also supports iSCSI initiators. Your server can access N8800 as a direct-attached-storage over the LAN or Internet. There is no easier way to expand the capacity of your current application servers. All the storage needs can be centrally managed and deployed. This brings ultimate flexibility to users.

To set up an iSCSI volume, refer to Chapter 4: System Management >

Storage Management > Space Allocation > Allocating Space for iSCSI Volume.

Superior Power Management

N8800 supports schedule power on/off. With this feature, administrator can set at what time to turn on or off the system. This feature is a big plus for people who want to conserve energy. Wake-On-LAN enables administrator to remotely turn on the system without even leaving their own seat.

To schedule system on and off, refer to Chapter 4: System Management >

System Settings > Reboot and Shutdown System > Scheduled Power On/Off.
