Complete Data Protection. Simplified.
Protection against any calamity, including human error
Your business data are sensitive, and protecting them is paramount. The 4big Rack Office secures your files at every point, taking human error out of the equation. It automates backups of your office's computers, from individual files – even open ones – to the entire system. For PCs, simply install Connector – the backup client software – on your office's computers, then the 4big Rack Office does the rest. What's more, support for incremental backup means that only changed or new files are backed up. This ensures you get both security and efficient storage usage.
Restore any file or even an entire system
With Windows Home Server 2011, it's easy to restore a file or even a complete workstation operating system. Thanks to robust versioning management, you can prevent data loss in the case that an employee accidentally deletes an important file. You can even browse through all saved files and select the one you want to restore. What's more, if a workstation's hard drive fails, you can restore the entire system. A simple wizard helps you to create a reinstallation DVD or USB key. This lets you restore the damaged system to the exact state captured in the latest backup. Complete system restoration. Hassle-free.
No data loss. No downtime.
The 4big Rack Office supports secured RAID 1 and RAID 5 modes for automatic, software-level protection. If a single disk fails, you can simply replace it. Just swap in a new one without losing a single byte of data. Whatever the challenge, zero data loss, minimal work interruption.
Distance your data from threats
For an additional level of data protection, back up your data to an offsite location. Prevent local technical problems or acts of God from causing downtime with NAS-to-DAS backups. Simply set up automatic backups to a connected DAS, which you can then take away to a safe place. Or, eliminate the need for human intervention and automate this task with NAS-to-NAS backups. This lets you schedule frequent backups to another NAS located in another room or building. Going even further, the 4big Rack Office integrates Wuala, LaCie's secure Cloud storage service. So now you can back up your critical data to the Cloud.
Sharing Done Right
Facilitate employee collaboration
Sharing information within a work group should be straightforward regardless of the tools used. The 4big Rack Office helps a business group to collaborate like no comparable NAS. It can serve files to any operating system – PC, Mac, or Linux, on the network. Employees can even access files stored on the NAS from the road using Windows' remote access feature.
Easy Configuration. Low Maintenance.
Painless integration
Integration into your infrastructure is as simple as ABC. No network knowledge is required to start. Simply connect the 4big Rack Office to your network, run the utilities DVD, and configure automatic backups. It takes just a few clicks. The browser-based Dashboard gives you quick access to key tasks. Control RAID management, user management, or backup status in the blink of an eye.
Real-time, anywhere system monitoring
Rest easy knowing that all your office's computers are backed up regularly. The 4big Rack Office's system status console alerts you when a backup fails or a scheduled task missed. It even features SMART monitoring system notify you of hardware failures or temperature risks. This lets you respond to issues before they threaten data accessibility.
