Compare the StoreVault S300 and S550 models. Using your mouse, move and rotate the products to view them from different angles.

StoreVault delivers unprecedented levels of flexibility, reliability and affordability through support for NAS and SAN in one single device with simple management. Selecting the right product is a simple matter of budget and capacity needs. And since StoreVault products can scale and replicate, future requirements can still be accommodated at a later date.

The StoreVault S300 is perfect for budget-challenged or smaller environments. For first-time SAN installations with some file-sharing to do, the S300 starts at under $3000 for 1TB of capacity that can sit quietly in a cupboard or near a printer.

The StoreVault S550 is better for larger firms that may be searching a more scalable, higher performing device for a rack environment. Starting under $6000 for one terabyte, this model also makes an ideal target for multiple S300s in a replication scenario. Stronger performance and Fibre Channel support ensure the heavy lifting gets done.
