Unified Network Storage Solution Overview
The Iron IPDATA-WUDSS S1500 is extremely simple, affordable, and reliable network storage solution that provides automation of storage management, seamless policy enforcement, and
easy-to use reporting tools. It enables small and mid-size companies to easily manage, grow, and protect their data without requiring them to become storage experts.
Business Ready. The one-of-a-kind Iron IPDATA-WUDSS Unified Storage System family has been designed specifically for small and mid-sized companies that are experiencing the
challenges of rapid data growth, and has capabilities to meet the unique needs of smaller IT environments.
All-in-One Network Storage Platform. Iron IPDATA-WUDSS is a platform designed for the integrated network attached storage (NAS) system where both file and block data (iSCSI)
management become simple, scalable and flexible. It combines an enhanced Windows file server with a shared iSCSI storage array for application servers while keeping data safe and
secure with integrated data protection software.
Simplified, Centralized Storage Management. This fully integrated and unified storage system is designed to be deployed and managed by IT generalists with no storage expertise and
delivers everything you need to lower the cost and complexity of rapidly growing data storage environments. The Unified Storage Manager (USM) software interface hides storage
complexity and presents storage in an application-centric view.

RAID array modules. Support for 16 SATA or SAS disk drives for a max of 16TB per module,
and daisy chain up to 4 modules for a max of 64TB storage per channel

Fast Data Recovery: Volume Shadow Services (VSS) based Volume Recovery
Network-Based Modular Storage External iSCSI Storage Arrays: Supports any number of
IP based IPDATA-WUDSS or IPDATA-LX, or any 3
rd
party iSCSI storage array from leading
storage vendors for unlimited storage expansion
Snapshots-PiT Recovery: Copy of Block-Level Volume Changes (Differential)
Folder-PiT Recovery: End-User Shared Folder (SCSF) Self-Recovery

Storage System Reliability
Data Backup & Folder Virtualization for Branch Offices
Storage Redundancy: Disk RAID Controller w/Battery Backup for Cache, Multiple RAID
Levels (0, 1, 5, 6, 10) supported
DFS-Naming and DFS-Replication for Files/Folders across enterprise

Power Redundancy: Multiple Redundant Power Supply Modules and Power Sources
Data Indexing and Search Optimization Service for Window Clients
Server "Bare Metal" Recovery
Faster access to files based on keywords, phrases or properties
Reset to "Factory Default OS Image" thru Iron designed FFRS based Recovery CD which
helps RAID Set-1 OS restore in case of accidental appliance failure

Single Instance Storage
System Remote "Lights Out" Management:
Eliminates Duplicate Files in the volume for better usage and Backup Efficiency
Industry standard IPMI based Out-Of-Band manageability for BIOS-level remote system
access; IPMI operates independent of the operating system when sending commands to the
appliance hardware over IP network. Provides ability to monitor, receive alerts, diagnose and
recover system, even when OS is hung or system is powered down.
