9. SOLPHY- Home Storage Office Usage Office Usage Creation of many files is nowadays office work attribute and almost all operation are now made or supported by computers. Because of the limited mass storage disk space System Administrators very often use divided architecture to manage files stored on many computers. Lots of user files are placed on their own local drives what causes a huge problem: failure of users HDD destroys all data stored on the drive – sometimes collected for many years.

Because of the limited mass storage disk space System Administrators very often use divided architecture to manage files stored on many computers. Lots of user files are placed on their own local drives what causes a huge problem: failure of users HDD destroys all data stored on the drive – sometimes collected for many years. Our system manages all that problems, giving in the same time a new way of the efficient disk space usage with high speed rate of data access. We give You a huge data storage capacity in the price lower than a single disk drive if counted per office employee. You get an opportunity to use the disk space optimally: disk space is granted if needed and not limited by users disks capacity. In addition all the data is stored in one place from where it can be easy backup on a streamer (tape drives).

11. Multimedia Use Multimedia Use Thanks to its powerful performance and large storage space, Home Storage is perfectly suited for saving large video and music material in and uncompressed format (RAW) When archiving in Home Storage, access to the needed data is almost instantaneous and its management is extremely easy. By creating a cataloged structure and including access rights, users can optimize the file system to their needs. The flexibility of the device allows the user almost limitless possibilities of arranging their files and catalogs When archiving in Home Storage, access to the needed data is almost instantaneous and its management is extremely easy.

13. Home Use Home Use Because of the fact that the resources of the device can be used by many home PCs, its low noise level and the very fast access to stored data, makes it perfectly suited as a central (archival) device to be utilized by home users. It allows the users to have a complete control over their files and clean up any mess that may exist with their CDs, DVDs and other files stored on the disk drives.

It allows the users to have a complete control over their files and clean up any mess that may exist with their CDs, DVDs and other files stored on the disk drives. With help of additional software creating a virtual CD/DVD drive we can simulate a usage of a real Compact and DVD disc, with an afford of just few mouse clicks. Advanced Technologies used on Home Storage make our favorite photos, music, movies, …. safe and endangered by CD/DVD scratches or a hard disk failure.

15. Network Use Network Use Local and neighborhood networks are becoming more popular each year. Such networks allow large numbers of users to communicate with each other. Neighborhood networks provide users with cheap access to the Internet, which is becoming a primary information and communication vehicle. Local and neighborhood networks are becoming more popular each year. Such networks allow large numbers of users to communicate with each other. Neighborhood networks provide users with cheap access to the Internet, which is becoming a primary information and communication vehicle. Thanks to the use of the FTP protocol (File Transfer Protocol) our device is perfectly suited as a storage repository for files downloaded by local network customers. Additionally, this also relives some network traffic, as users need only download file once; the files are then available for all users in Home Storage. By using NFS or SMB, access to those files is as easy, as they were on our local hard drives. The NFS (Network File System) protocol allows to use the device as a mass storage for emails or as a proxy server for web pages.

17. Technologies Technologies - Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) - Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) - Logical Volume Manager (LVM) - Reiser File System - Management of the file and folders permissions based on Access Control List (ACL) Access Control List (ACL) - iSCSI

18. SOLPHY- Home Storage Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) RAID is an assembly of two or more hard disks that are employed in combination to increase data integrity, fault- tolerance and/or performance. RAID models RAID models Stripping – spreads out blocks of each file across multiple disk drives allowing a faster data access. Mirroring – provides redundancy by writing same data to a two drives. The performance tends to be faster on reads and slower on writes compared to a single drive. If one drive fails, all of the data is available on the other one.

19. SOLPHY- Home Storage RAID Levels RAID Levels - Raid 0 – assembly of disks for greater efficiency capacity. - Raid 1 – assembly of disks for greater security. - Raid 5 – is a compromise between safety and redundancy of the disk space.

20. SHS- Logical Volume Manager LVM (Logical Volume Manager) allows to manage the disk space on much higher level then ordinary disks and partitions management LVM (Logical Volume Manager) allows to manage the disk space on much higher level then ordinary disks and partitions management It connects tree levels (Physical Volumes, Volumes Groups, Logical Volumes) comparing to the classic, two level approach (disk and partition). It connects tree levels (Physical Volumes, Volumes Groups, Logical Volumes) comparing to the classic, two level approach (disk and partition). Its varieties are used in Storage Devices companies like IBM, HP or DELL. Its varieties are used in Storage Devices companies like IBM, HP or DELL.
