Broadberry CyberStore 424DSS Review

This unified network storage product combines NAS, IP SAN and FC SAN operations and has great expansion potential. Dave Mitchell finds out if the affordable platform is the perfect all-rounder. SMBs faced with a choice of network storage technologies typically opt for IP SANs as they’re more flexible than NAS appliances and cost less than FC SANs. Broadberry’s CyberStore 424DSS now gives them the best of all three worlds as it combines NAS, IP SAN and FC SAN operations in the same appliance. The driving force is provided by Open-E’s Data Storage Server (DSS) software. This offers all three storage options as standard so you can pick whichever suits your needs.
