Single Storage Solution

Standalone Configuration for Cost-Effective Enterprise Storage

Purpose-built single controller solution delivering enterprise-grade ZFS storage with full feature set,
expandable architecture, and seamless upgrade path to high availability configurations.

When to Choose Single Storage

Ideal for development environments, non-critical workloads, cost-sensitive deployments, and organizations requiring enterprise-grade features without high availability overhead. Seamlessly expandable to HA configurations without data migration or architectural changes.

Data Integrity

ZFS end-to-end checksumming ensures
data integrity from application to disk,
preventing silent corruption.

Instant Snapshots

Copy-on-write snapshots provide point-in-time recovery without performance impact or storage overhead.

Compression & Deduplication

Real-time compression and block-level deduplication reduce storage footprint transparently.

Unified Management

Cockpit web interface provides comprehensive system monitoring and ZFS pool management.

Architecture Overview

Single controller architecture provides enterprise ZFS features with linear scalability and upgrade flexibility.
Built on AMD enterprise hardware with redundant components and open standards.

Single Controller

Purpose-built 1U rackmount server with AMD enterprise processors, ECC memory, and redundant power supplies for reliable standalone operation.

JBOD Expansion
