Western Digital software helps power scalable, cost-effective NAS storage solutions by combining AUK Computing’s SILO NAS controllers with Ultrastar Data60 and Data102 storage platforms. Together, they enable flexible file sharing through SMB/CIFS, NFS, and FTP, while supporting user and group management for controlled access. The solution also simplifies disk and RAID management across file systems such as EXT4, XFS, BTRFS, and ZFS, improving redundancy and protection. With backup options like Rsync, USB backup, and snapshot tools, Western Digital’s software-enabled storage foundation supports reliable data protection, easy expansion, and added functionality for demanding NAS environments.
