NetDisk is an embeddable
thin file server through which storage
devices are connected for direct network attached access
via Unix
or Windows clients. Substitution of NetDisk for PC based
file
servers provides clients network storage access at significantly
reduced cost and far greater ease-of-use. NetDisk is
designed
from the ground up to move data, unlike conventional
PC servers
using applications processors running complex network
operating
systems.
The NetDisk design leverages the latest hardware and
software
technologies in order to deliver plug-and-play simplicity
and
reliability. With NetDisk, adding or removing resources
from the
network is as easy as plugging in a light and turning
it on. NetDisk
attaches to any 10Base-T or 100Base-TX Ethernet LAN,
is
auto-configuring and supports multiple high-speed SCSI
storage
devices.
Device management and configuration is accessible
via Internet or
Intranet using Java applet capable web browsers run
from either
Unix or Windows clients. User name and password protection
ensures proper access.
