Shall you need an NAS (Network Attached Storage) device?
The answer is Yes ! As it's required storage capacity to your network quickly and easily at such heavy loading Internet era.

According to the article "Planet provides NAS 3200 for SOHO, SMB, Enterprise" on Eurotrade Computer & Communication August (2003 VOL.15 No. 08), PLANET provides a reliable and affordable solution, the NAS-3200, to accommodate the increasing storage demands for enterprise, small business and SOHO.

Regardless of what operating systems installed in your network, NAS-3200 has straightforward setup procedures and can be installed in any existing network environment using its simple and intuitive management interface. In this issue of Eurotrade, PLANET NAS 3200 solution was introduced in the NAS special report.

The NAS-3200 has an embedded RAID controller, supporting RAID level zero and one. The intelligent on-line rebuild feature allows any failed disk in a RAID 1 array to be replaced without powering off the NAS-3200, and reduces system downtime while ensuring data integrity.

There are two RJ-45 ports built into NAS-3200, one supporting 10/100Mbps and the other supporting Gigabit Ethernet 10/100/1000Mbps, providing redundant LAN connections and continuous network service.

The NAS-3200 can be fully integrated into Microsoft , Unix , Novell networks as well as Macintosh. The two drive bays allow the installation of the users' choice of hard disks of varying capacity. For security, there has an enhanced ACL (Access Control List) user privilege control mechanism. Because different platforms have different implementations of access rights for files, the ACL implements an appropriate mapping among platforms to provide consistent behavior of file level access control.
