The RDX QuikStation 4 is designed to be enormously flexible while being simple to setup and manage. The onboard multi-language web-based management console provides for remote configuration, control, security, and management from a standard web browser. It also has automatic software updates / maintenance via the internet.

Enable Your IT to Manage Everything

The iSCSI connectivity of RDX QuikStation 4 enables an easy integration into physical and virtual environments, and also Hybrid cloud storage architectures. Providing four RDX iSCSI targets, up to four application servers can utilize their own removable disk storage device.

Overcome Capacity Limitations

By spanning RDX drives in the QuikStation together, the capacity limitation of one single RDX media volume can be extended, but still maintain all RDX benefits of removability and protection of customer’s data.

Features & Benefits of QuikStation® 8

Features Benefits
Based on RDX Removable Disk RDX is the de facto industry standard for removable disk technology and has been adopted by all major system OEMs. RDX delivers the removability and durability of tape with the random access and performance of disk.
Media Removability & Transportability Easily facilitates safe data transport for offline storage, disaster recovery, archiving, data collection and interchange. Up to 10-year RDX media shelf life for data archiving capability.
8 individual RDX drives Use as 8 individual iSCSI targets with simultaneous read/write capability or as individual media locations within an emulated library.
Logical Volume spanning By utilizing 5TB RDX media, a maximum online capacity of 40TB is available by configuring 2 logical volumes with 4 RDX drives each. In protected mode, a maximum capacity of 30TB can be achieved.

RDX media removability allows for limitless offline storage and media capacities will increase with the RDX roadmap.
High Performance read/write The ability to simultaneously read or write from all 8 drives in conjunction with bonded network connectors in iSCSI mode means that high performance data transfer rates can be achieved to meet shrinking backup windows.
Protected mode for logical volume configurations Ensures high data availability by providing fault tolerance of RDX media.
Optional 2nd power supply Eliminates single point of failure in case of a power failure.
Network Attached RDX Simple installation & deployment utilizing existing infrastructure and widespread networking expertise.

Perfect solution for consolidating multiple RDX operations.
Green features for minimal power, cooling, and space requirements Very low power requirements: under 90 watts, typical.

RDX removability means that RDX media that is not currently in use can be taken offline to minimize data center power and cooling needs.
