DiskXtender for NAS
File system archiving for Network Attached Storage (NAS)

EMC DiskXtender for NAS manages huge volumes of network-attached storage data ranging from terabytes to petabytes based on administrator-defined policies. DiskXtender for NAS automatically migrates inactive files from NAS systems in Microsoft Windows, UNIX, and Linux environments to archive storage devices—and consistently applies and enforces data retention policies.

By moving inactive or infrequently accessed files from your primary NAS system, you can achieve a lower total storage cost and shorten backup and recovery processes. In addition, you can lessen the risk of non-compliance and avoid penalties by using DiskXtender to automatically apply data retention policies that meet compliance regulations or corporate governance guidelines.
