Introducing the World’s First

Thunderbolt™ Hybrid NASPresented by: Hernan Lopez

Current Products in the Market

Block-based DAS (Direct Attached Storage)

Challenges Today Using a DAS

Direct attached storage used today : USB External HDD / e.g. WD, Seagate drives, Toshiba RAID drives / e.g. LaCie, G-technology, OWC USB sticks / e.g. SanDisk, Kingston, PNY

1. Inability to share files Have to physically move the drives in order to share

2. Inability to centralize files Multiple drives lay around and not organized

3. Inability to remote access Cannot access files on-the-go / or working remotely

Challenges of using a NAS

Speed!!

Common network speed 10 GbE (Very expensive) 1 GbE ( Was slower than a DAS)

Speed is Key

High-performance I/O throughput

20Gb/s Thunderbolt 2 *Current*

10Gb/s Thunderbolt

5GB/s USB 3

.8GB/s FireWire 800

.5GB/s USB 2

Our Solution – Thunderbolt™ NAS

DAS + NAS = Solution to all Thunderbolt 2 speeds Sharable across network via SMB/AFP/FTP protocols Remote access Expandable (expansion units)

Why the Thunderbolt™ NAS

Faster transfer speedsDirect attached to your computer

Mac Late 2013 and later -> Thunderbolt 2 capable Mid 2011 ~ Late 2012 -> Thunderbolt 1

Windows (selected high-end models)

More cost-effective10GbE environment requires >$1500 + to set upThunderbolt connection is essentially free

Available in 2 Models

Quick Comparison

How it Works: IP over Thunderbolt

Thunderbolt 2 cable can run all network services including FTP, file share. But if it’s not enough…

Challenges of the Creatives

Photography Multiple external hard drives laying around Hard to fine particular photos / photo shoots

Post-production Time consuming when sharing files Large files / sometimes 10+GBs per file, requiring lots of storage

Film Multiple outings for shoots/filming require on the go. Uses rugged external HDD

Advertising Art directors have to work with Thunderbolt speeds, but still have challenges to

share quickly with creative directors / clients

Example Workflow of a Photographer

Photo shoot

Read files From SD card

Save a copy of raw file to external

HDDEdit raw files

And save edited files

Share files… via?

Cloud services, or hard drive

USB stick

Challenges:• May end up with many

external HDD• Data Protection (disk failure)• Spread out copies

everywhere• Ability to share files

Thunderbolt™ NAS Workflow

Photo shoot

Upload raw filesfrom SD to

Thunderbolt NAS

Backup extra copies of raw images on Thunderbolt NAS.

Edits raw images with Thunderbolt

speeds with Thunderbolt NAS

SHARE1. via direct download links for

clients, managers to review. 2. Within the network via Ethernet3. Via 2nd thunderbolt port to

another Mac/Thunderbolt-ready computer

BACKUP TO CLOUD SERVICES

CHALLENGES SOLVED• Centralize files in one place• Data protected by RAID (in

case of hard drive failure)• Disaster prevention – lets

you backup the files on the NAS to Cloud services, other NAS, external drives

• Easily share files

Dual Thunderbolt Ports

1. 2 Workstations can directly connect

and edit via Thunderbolt™2. Share and access the files within the

NAS via the network3. Scale as you go, daisy chain

expansion units via Thunderbolt

Dual Thunderbolt + 10GbE Share across network
