After plugging in at least one iSCUBE storage unit
into the network, install the MyiStorage software
application on a locally attached Windows Server or Workstation. Click on the application
to run the storage provisioning wizard and create multiple, customized, logical
disks. The whole process is as easy as attaching a USB drive to your PC but with
faster and more ubiquitous access. The user can easily increase disk capacity or
enable data protection, while data is still online, simply by adding more
iSCUBE Storage units into the network. Install MyiStorage
on additional systems so each can have dedicated, virtual disks and to enhance
iSCUBE storage capacity utilization.
Advanced features include providing protection from dual hardware faults (RAID6),
provided there are four iSCUBE storage units and
the ability to create Windows dynamic volumes – pushing up the basic volumes limitation
of Windows from 2TB to 256TB. Host dynamic disks are typically used by applications
that require faster, larger, more robust and/or fault tolerant volumes. For example,
multiple disk volumes can be used by file servers, database and messaging servers
that require high capacity, high performance and reduced latencies.
