Veritas Access 3340 NAS/DAS Storage System

The Veritas Access 3340 NAS/DAS Storage System is a cutting-edge unified storage appliance designed to simplify unstructured data management for modern businesses. By integrating the benefits of network-attached storage (NAS) and direct-attached storage (DAS) into a single, scalable platform, the 3340 delivers robust performance, streamlined administration, and flexible deployment options. This solution is ideal for large-scale file services, media libraries, backup repositories, and cross-site collaboration, offering a foundation for efficient data growth while reducing complexity and total cost of ownership.

• Unified NAS/DAS architecture: A single, scalable platform that consolidates file sharing, storage pooling, and data protection, delivering a simplified admin experience and a smaller hardware footprint.
• Scalability to match growth: Modular capacity and performance enable you to expand storage and throughput as workloads expand, without disruptive migrations or downtime.
• Enterprise-grade data protection: Built-in snapshots, replication, and recovery options guard critical data against failures and disasters across on‑premises and hybrid environments.
• Flexible access with multiple protocols: Supports SMB, NFS, and iSCSI to fit diverse enterprise environments, from Windows and Linux to virtualization platforms and cloud integrations.
• Reliability and efficiency you can trust: Purposeful hardware design, energy efficiency, and centralized management minimize downtime and drive down operational costs.
