UltraNAS Offsite Storage Space
UltraNAS™ Offsite Backup Space
Backups are an important and integral part of any hosting solution. If you want to self-manage your backups and just need a large amount of offsite storage space, our UltraNAS™ service is perfect.
The NAS appliance is located at our second (disaster recovery) site, connected by our redundant fibre ring over a private VLAN back to your server(s). A choice of three configurations give you between 500GB and 2TB of usable space.
To use this service you will need a free port on the server(s) that you intend to connect to this service. In the case of dedicated servers already connected to our NAS service, we would simply disconnect the NAS cable from your second network interface, and use this to connect to your private NAS.
The traffic between your servers and the NAS appliance are completely unmetered, so you wouldn’t pay for any bandwidth used over this service.
UltraNAS™ is available to all colocation, rackspace and dedicated server customers as an alternative to our shared NAS service.
As an alternative, you can have a NAS connected up to an external, unmetered 10Mbps port, making it an ideal way to back up from your office, or to act as a simple high-volume webserver, using the inbuilt Qnap web server.
