Real Solutions Haarlem BV was again present at this year's Computex in Taiwan where, among others, Synology introduced a number of new models. One that definitely stood out was the (business) Security Gateway SG1000. Besides the SG1000, we also see a flash drive in a desktop look and many upgrades to existing products.
Qsan is coming quarter 3 2017 with a number of QCubeNAS systems that, unlike other NAS vendors all have 1 additional 2.5′ SSD expansion. So a classic 2 Bay NAS with an extra ssd slot. Ditto for the 4(+1)Bay and 8(+1)Bay.
Qnap presented a number of new models of already existing NAS versions this year. What was particularly noticeable was that Qnap presented separate software solutions for different segments. We also found a secretly hidden QNAP 10GB desktop switch with 8 x 10GbE UTP connections and 12 x 10Gbe FSP+, the introduction of which is expected in the autumn.
Finally ACCELSTOR showed its new ALLFLASH drives. This manufacturer manages to leave its competitors far behind with such a high IOPS by using its own patented SSD read and write method, which also extends the lifespan of the SSDs.
