The 18TB (6x3TB) StorCenter px6-300d Network Storage from Iomega is a network storage enclosure, perfect for use in small offices, workgroups, and home networks. While it can house up to six 2.5" or 3.5" SATA hard drives or SSD drives, this version comes with six 3TB drives that boast a disk speed of 7200rpm and the SATA 3Gbps interface. This storage unit connects to your network via dual Gigabit Ethernet ports, and offers advanced features such as iSCSI block access, RAID support, and remote data access. It is compatible with Mac, Windows, and Linux clients.

Business users will be happy with the vast functionality of the device. It can be connected to a UPS monitoring port, act as a print server of an Axis IP security camera server, and supports rsync device-to-device data replication. Support for Microsoft's Active Directory, user quotas, and user-replaceable drives round out the server's impressive professional feature set.

Home users will be happy to know that the server features built-in support for the UPnP AV protocol. This allows media files stored on the drive to be streamed to DLNA-certified devices, which include many popular digital media players. It also features a BitTorrent client, which allows you to download files shared on the popular peer-to-peer file sharing network directly to the drive -- making it possible to download files when your computer is powered down!

Iomega Personal Cloud

Iomega Personal Cloud is the revolutionary technology that allows you to protect and share your data. Iomega Personal Cloud is a patent-pending, web-based computing architecture that connects your Iomega StorCenter network storage devices to other individuals and/or devices via the Internet. Unlike public and private cloud applications, Iomega's Personal Cloud technology is completely self-owned - so the content and accessibility are always under your control
Backup
Keeping a second copy of your data in an offsite location ensures availability in the event of an unforeseen disaster. Remote backups can run in the background after business hours to eliminate network bottlenecks
Copy Data
Users around the globe can sync files directly between computers as though they were on a local network
Collaboration
Easily set up a shared workspace so that local and remote users can view and edit documents (spreadsheets, presentations, and word processing documents, for example) - especially useful for helping geographically dispersed workers collaborate
Sharing
Sending large files can quickly choke your company's email system. And emailing sensitive files can raise security concerns. Iomega Personal Cloud offers functionality that makes it easy to securely copy and transfer large or confidential files
Security
Iomega Personal Cloud allows you to choose who has access to what data by invitation only. And, users can choose from three levels of security when sending data over a public network. At many smaller companies, locally stored files are at risk from theft, fire, software problems, and hardware failure. Cloud storage offers built-in redundancy at every level: hard drive, server, and datacenter
Low Maintenance
Once the system is set up there is almost no maintenance. You still have to manage user accounts, but jobs like array maintenance and monitoring the health of your data storage simply go away
Archiving
Archiving older files to a remote StorCenter frees up space on your primary StorCenter device for day-to-day business needs. Less capacity required for primary storage saves you money

Additional Features

Capacity
Empty bays are fitted with a drive carrier. This unit supports a capacity of 18GB. Carrier can accommodate 2.5" and 3.5" drives

Data Organization and Access

For my increasing data needs

By Jadenkian

from Austin, TX

Comments about Iomega 18TB (6x3TB) StorCenter px6-300d Network Storage:

My data requirements are increasing by the day and I decided to invest on a more advanced and spacious NAS and that is how I came across the StorCenter px6-300d. The dual core intel atom processor with 2GB memory and dual gigabit ethernet NICs is the soul of the NAS. The NAS is with me for more than a year. I bought a fully loaded NAS and hence I had no headache of setting up dual redundancy.

I am planning to get another px6-300d for my home to connect it with my office NAS for data safety keeping in mind the concept of disaster recovery. Once I get it for my home I am planning to connect my playstation 3 for media streaming. I heard it works wonderfully!

Perfect SMB NAS device

By Emelyjolie

from Denver, CO

Verified Reviewer

Comments about Iomega 18TB (6x3TB) StorCenter px6-300d Network Storage:

A perfect SMB device that delivers for the price. The read/write performance is great and it perfectly integrates with my business network. A big storage of 18TB is a big plus. The product has carved a niche for itself in the NAS market with powerful features like flexible configurations, iSCSI level access, Active Directory domains, facility to embed third party applications using application manager, copy jobs for data backup, print server, power saving options and lots more. I run my NAS round the clock and it dose not heat up and is quiet. I will recommend this NAS device.

Comments about Iomega 18TB (6x3TB) StorCenter px6-300d Network Storage:

I have used a number of NAS units but the StorCenter px6-300d network storage device truly changed the way I looked at NAS devices. This 6 bay desktop with 18TB storage capacity came with a wide range of network protocols, multiple RAID options, replication capabilities and host of other add ons that simply put it above all the other NAS units in the market.File sharing and data security is top class. Best of all no hassles when installing.

Storage wonder

By Odisray

from Barnet Springs, LA

Verified Reviewer

Comments about Iomega 18TB (6x3TB) StorCenter px6-300d Network Storage:

With my business expanding by the day I felt the need for suitable network storage. My small office houses 12 computers that are connected via a router. I have always felt the need for a high storage capacity NAS server that promises of remote access. When I started my search I was confused as I was not left with many options. When I analyzed the possibilities I came to a conclusion that Iomega StorCenter px6-300d was the best.

Though I had to spend some extra bucks I did not mind as I was sure that it will satisfy all my storage woes. I was happy to note that I was able to access my px6-300d using the Iomega Personal cloud technology. It is a revolutionary technology.

By Zettielee

from Arcola, LA

Verified Reviewer

Comments about Iomega 18TB (6x3TB) StorCenter px6-300d Network Storage:

I was able to face the challenge of running an entry level enterprise with the help of Iomega StorCenter px6-300d network storage device. The px6-300d was able to satisfy all my storage demands and also worked as a centralized network backup for my office. This network attached storage device came with six 3TB SATA drive bays. The dual gigabit Ethernet port enables remote access.

There was a variety of RAID options like RAID 0, 10, 5, 5+ hot spare, 6. This is not all the device also facilitate JBOD as well. Creating iSCSI levels was very easy. I also learnt that the px6-300d supports SSD as well.

Good value for money

By Jenniemae

from Toledo, OH

Comments about Iomega 18TB (6x3TB) StorCenter px6-300d Network Storage:

I have been using Iomega StorCenter px6-300d NAS unit for three months now and to tell you the truth it is good value for money as it has plenty of backup tools. This is not all the network storage feature is also quite impressive. I have to definitely talk about Iomega personal cloud technology, it is simply amazing. I was able to configure easily and the remote access is secure. Only those whom I invite on my personal cloud will have access to my data.

The device comes with dual gigabit ethernet and supports SSD as well. The USB print server and DLNA/UPnP server is an added advantage apart from a host of other features.

Glad I bought this device

By Rhetta

from Saint Paul,Minnesota

Comments about Iomega 18TB (6x3TB) StorCenter px6-300d Network Storage:

This is for storage hungry users. The massive 18TB storage space facility offered by Iomega StoreCenter px6-300d is a must have for all small business enterprises who are concerned about a massive storage capacity. There is no denying the fact that it is the best NAS server available in the market with such huge capacity.

I have configured the drives in a single RAID 6 array. The backup was made simple with the Copy Job features that schedules backup from one network device to another. The web interface has made connecting to remote users very simple. The cloud service allows greater access to the px6 even while away from office.
