High Density, Expandable Storage System
Nexsan's SATABeast®, a member of the Flexible Storage Platform™, is a high-capacity storage system ideal for applications requiring very high capacity and storage density provided in a minimal amount of rack space. With its storage density of 84TB offered through 42 drive bays, SATABeast's small 4U footprint is targeted at primary and secondary storage applications, as well as long-term bulk and disk-to-disk backup applications where ultra-high capacity is paramount, allowing companies to maximize their investment in data center floor space.
By employing the largest capacity SATA drives, SATABeast is much more cost-efficient than storage systems using the typically more expensive SCSI, SAS and Fibre Channel drives. Because of this combination of high density and cost-effectiveness, SATABeast delivers the industry's best price/performance value in a scalable disk solution, making it the smart choice for medium-sized businesses and mid-tier deployments in large organizations.
  
As with all Nexsan solutions, SATABeast is built for enterprise-class applications, providing tier-1 full redundancy and high performance at tier-2 prices. It's very easy to install and use. SATABeast includes technologies that provide a combination of cost-effective high density, space efficiency and Nexsan's AutoMAID® (Massive Array of Idle Disks) level 3 energy-saving technology, which enables SATABeast to save up to 60% in energy costs.
