Dell Covers Its NAS: Page 2 of 2

“We’ve seen tremendous growth in our platform since we added Windows Server 2003 support," Skymba says. Dell added the support to its higher-end NAS systems -- the PowerVault 770N and 775N -- last August. It held off on upgrading the lower-end PowerVault 725N then because it was due for a hardware upgrade.

The new system -- the 745N -- ships with Intel Corp. (Nasdaq: INTC) Celeron or Pentium 4 processors, and its storage capacity ranges from 160 Gbytes to 4 Tbytes. It also borrows some software capability from Dell’s higher-end NAS systems, such as snapshots and Web-based management applications. Pricing starts at $1,799.
