Dynamic provisioning is not limited to individual usage quotas, allowing various services and applications to use storage space together. Through dynamic configuration technology, space resources can be allocated to the most demanding services or applications, which are more in line with the needs of business mobility and maximize their potential.

     Deduplication

     The XN8000R series's deduplication function is a block layer technology. When data is read into the system, this function checks the similarity of the block. When the system finds a duplicate block, it will not write the block to the magnetic. The disc also saves disk storage space.

      Centralized data storage and file sharing

     Tr

     The XN8000R series offers a fast and secure solution to share files with anyone at any time. While browsing, organizing, and moving files between the computer and XCubeNAS, you can customize access rights to enhance security.

     Through tight system integration, files can also be shared between operating systems such as Windows, Mac, Linux, Android and iOS.

     Account Settings for Accounts and Shared Directory

    
By limiting the amount of data a user can store, you'll be able to fully grasp the storage space. The system can limit the amount of data that can be stored in a directory of the user. The system administrator can also set the amount of storage space on the system, so that the stored content on the XN8000 can be fully controlled.

Windows AD and LDAP Directory Services

By supporting Windows AD and LDAP, the XN5004R enables seamless account integration. Up to 200,000 domain accounts can be joined onto the XN8012R and their Home folder is automatically created, helping IT administrators reduce duplicated sets of credentials and minimizing their workload in giving default account settings and new user setup

     Support for Windows Access Control Lists and Advanced Access Control Lists
 

     An Access Control List (ACL) is a list of permissions that specify the actions of specific users on directories and archives. The Advanced Access Control List lets you set permissions for subdirectories, while the Windows Access Control List lets you apply the Windows File Permissions mechanism to files and directories. With support for these two access control lists, system administrators can flexibly enforce file access rules under any operating system to protect your data from unauthorized access or theft.

     Powerful web file browser - File Manager

     Through the XN8000R series of network file browsers, you can link and share files anywhere in the world. The web-centric archivist allows XN8000R users to easily access and share with others, and to set the link to be valid or permanent for a specified period of time.

Backup filter

     Real-time backup

     The instant off-site backup function backs up the copy of the data to the storage location you trust; periodically copies the data to different branches, and restores your data when a disaster occurs. Ensure data availability and provide more options for the emergency recovery plan your business needs.

     Snapshots and Remote Snapshots

     When writing to shared directories and iSCSI LUNs, the snapshot records the status change. Through regular snapshots, system administrators can have a better grasp of the data version, and can also perform specific point-in-time restores of directories and LUNs, so they can be flexibly restored to their original state. The remote snapshot can transfer the version information to the target XCubeNAS, allowing the system administrator to effectively use the storage space according to the retention principle and space requirements.

XMirror

    XMirror periodically synchronizes the contents of a logical volume across multiple sets of XCubeNAS, and any changes to the file are overwritten to other XCubeNAS. Data between different XCubeNAS systems and their consistent availability are guaranteed by XMirror.

Support for logical volume mirror synchronization

One-way backup: Any data modification on the local NAS will be synchronized to the remote end, but the data modification of the remote NAS will not be synchronized to the local machine.

Two-way backup: any data modification on one NAS will be synced to other NAS

Version control (64 versions)

     Build a personal hybrid cloud
 

     Use Google Drive, OneDrive, and Dropbox to create a hybrid cloud that accesses and backs up files on your mobile device, PC, or thin computer anytime, anywhere. The XCubeNAS can be used as a cloud gateway as a bridge between your public cloud and private files and as a central access point.

     Security and Data Protection

     More and more data leakage incidents and malicious software attacks, data security and system protection mechanisms have become crucial issues. The QSM system of the XN8000R series is built on the concept of security as the top priority, comprehensively protects data security, and provides different tools to prevent system failure, data interception or accidental deletion. In addition, the built-in virus protection software can also set up scanning tasks to perform scanning actions on the entire NAS or specified directories according to the schedule.

     WORM (Write Once Data Protection Technology)
 

     WORM technology is designed to prevent modification of data during a specific time period, whether the modification is intentional or unexpected. Files and directories protected by the WORM mechanism can only be read during the specified time period, and cannot be edited until the time period expires. WORM can also prevent ransomware from encrypting files in the victim system, which prevents intruded users from accessing files and maintaining their data security. WORM protects your confidential information from unauthorized editing and threats, ensuring the correctness and integrity of your data.

     Hard Disk Self-Encryption (SED)
 

     By supporting SED technology, the XN8000R can be safer than you think. With this technology, even if the disk itself is stolen or misplaced on other machines, the data in the disk can still be accessed through a dedicated authentication key (AK) to prevent data leakage or unauthorized access. Access. With secure technology, QSM still provides a convenient and efficient way to manage authentication keys and migrate protected data for better efficiency.

     Support for AES 256 storage pool encryption
 

     The XN8000R series storage pool encryption mechanism ensures that the storage environment is secure. Any user who wants to modify the data must first pass the authentication. The XCubeNAS supports AES 256 encryption for internal disks and external USB/eSTAT disks and uses military-grade FIPS 140-2 encryption technology that is considered the highest level of security certification.

     Virus Protection
 

     The built-in virus protection feature scans files on a regular basis and automatically puts suspicious files into the quarantine to protect the system from potential threats.
