Fast And Accessible Media Storage from Thecus

Too much digital media to handle, and not enough time to enjoy it? Thecus introduced the N2050, the world's first eSATA on DAS (Direct Attached Storage). With its innovative eSATA interface, large storage space, and attractive styling, the N2050 is the ideal storage device for media enthusiasts that have a large media collection, and need to access it in a fast.

The N2050 is the first DAS storage device to feature a high-speed eSATA interface. With eSATA, the N2050 boasts a transfer speed of up to 3Gb/s, six times faster than high-speed USB 2.0. With eSATA, users can access their photos, songs, and files faster than ever before.

There is no problem if you don't have an eSATA interface. The N2050 is a SATA/USB dual mode device, which means it can use the USB 2.0 interface as well.

If you have a big media collection, with two 3.5" SATA drive bays, the N2050 can accommodate a pair of SATA hard disks up to 500GB in size for a massive 1 TB (terabyte) of storage. That means enough storage for about 1,000,000 photos and 250,000 songs. To keep your data safe, the N2050 comes standard with a hardware RAID controller, which can be configured RAID 1 for increased data security. With RAID 1, the N2050 automatically saves your data on two hard disks, allowing you to easily replace one should it fail, without any data loss. Alternatively, RAID 0 can be used for increased disk performance.
