The HP ProLiant DL100 G2 Storage Server is an affordable and compact Windows-powered file and print solution that enables small and remote office environments to consolidate multiple direct-attached storage (DAS) installations and management interfaces to a single centralized Network Attached Storage (NAS) device. This solution can also be a cost-conscious way to add storage to your network very quickly, or it can be an effective disk-based backup or replication target. It supports multiple file sharing protocols and Windows storage-specific tools that make file share maintenance both easy and powerful. And with the optional Microsoft® iSCSI Software Target, you can upgrade to host block-based storage for Exchange, SQL or other applications.

This network storage solution not only aids in consolidation, storage expansion, and cost reduction, but also helps you spend less time and effort deploying and managing file and print services. It comes with Microsoft Windows Storage Server 2003 Release 2 Operating System pre-installed, and user storage is pre-configured. It's quick to install and it's Windows through-and-through--if you know how to use the Microsoft Management Console (MMC), you probably already know how to manage it. And the unique Rapid Start-up Wizard streamlines installation even more. Finally, remote management capability at both the system level and at the hardware component level (IPMI v2.0) means you can manage and troubleshoot from anywhere.

The DL100 G2 Storage Server leverages industry-standard components to protect and optimize your hardware investment: it packs the storage and I/O you need into only 1U of rack space; it offers four capacity points--starting with the entry-level 320GB model--to help you balance your storage requirements with affordability; and it integrates seamlessly into HP ProLiant or StorageWorks environments.
