Seagate today announced Seagate Business Storage, its newest network-attached storage (NAS) product line for small office / home office (SOHO), remote mobile office (RMO) and small to medium-sized business organizations (SMBs).
Seagate Business Storage delivers centralized backup, data protection and remote access to business information in capacities ranging from 2TB up to 16TBs.
For business collaboration and backup protection, the new Seagate Business Storage provides a secure solution that works with existing cloud backup and online sharing services. Business Storage?s centralized backup capability takes the guesswork out of providing employees with backup protection and sharing across multiple computing platforms. Designed to backup all PC and Mac computers in an organization to a single centralized location, this new NAS includes backup software for Windows PCs and is also compatible with Apple?s Time Machine for backup of Mac OSX computers.
Seagate Business Storage is essentially a private cloud, which can reside in a single office location and is capable of providing access via both Android and iOS applications for mobile devices and a secure networked connection from any notebook. Additionally, for those important files that need increased protection, this new network attached storage also provides hardware encryption for select files.
The 2 and 4 Bay versions of Seagate Business Storage deliver maximum data protection by providing redundant backups of the information stored on the device. Also, the addition of a Universal Storage Module (USM) slot allows for plug-n-play removable external drives to be input and removed from the device for improved workflow and offsite backup capability.
The one-drive solution ranges from 2 terabytes for an MSRP $199.99 to 4 terabytes at an MSRP of $329.00.
The two-bay business storage solution can either be picked up as a chassis without drives for $199.99, or with 4 terabytes for an MSRP $469.99, 6 terabytes for an MSRP of $549.99 to $749.99 for 8 terabytes.
The Business Storage four-bay solution will range from a no-drive chassis for $429.99 to 16 terabytes for $1499.99.
Seagate Business Storage can be found as of this week at CDW, Amazon and Newegg.
