Basic Overview About Superxpert Storage Server
Technology
The storage system is not attached to any
network. This type of storage does not have to be
limited only to the internal storage. There are
some disk-enclosures which contain the hard disk
drives are can be used externally for the storage
purposes. They can even be attached to the Super
blade Servers at SuperXpert. They can be the part
of RAID as well as JBOD.

JBOD stands for something casual and rather
humorous Just a Bunch of Disks. This system
works in a different way though. The disks in
this storage system are presented to any computer
system as if they were its internal hard disks.
They are mainly used to enhance the storage
capacity of the different servers. They can also
increase the storage capacity of the Superblade
Servers at SuperXpert. JBOD is indeed a very
simple storage system with simple externally
placed enclosures that can be connected to the
multiple servers using eSATA or SAS connections.

The JBOD can be used to create a storage pool.
Using the Storage Spaces technique, all the
physical disks can be combined together and a
storage pool can be created. Also, once the pool
has been created, virtual disks can also be
created if there is any free space left in the
pool. JBOD are more cost-effective and usually
more flexible. They are also easier to manage
than the other such storage systems.

Storage Area Network   SAN or storage area
network is indeed a dedicated network and it lest
the users share the storage. It also has the
network storage capabilities but it differs with
the network-attached storage in many ways. But
network-attached is the storage attached to the
network. On the other hand, SAN provides a
completely different storage network altogether.

Network Attached Storage   As the name suggest,
these types of storage devices are connected to a
network from where they are accessed by the other
computers using the file share technology. While
direct-attached is directly connected to a
computer, the network-attached is connected to a
network. Network-attached devices for storage
usually support the Ethernet connection.
