Microsoft or Linux
The platform (OS) choice has a major impact on the later performance of and your satisfaction with the storage solution. Unified Storage may speak multiple protocols, but this does not make them equally suited for all tasks.
NAS filesharing for Windows PCs and heterogeneous environments are best implemented with our Microsoft-based NAS solutions.

Just two highlights are the recovery of old or deleted files by the users without IT helpdesk or the elimination of multiple file copies on your shares (SIS).
