Centauri Storage Expansion
-
As the latest product in One Stop Systems’ line of PCIe storage expansion, Centauri offers high-capacity storage in a compact chassis. Built as a modular storage expansion to the OSS 3U SDS, Centauri can store up to 256 TB in its 8-drive canister. These canisters allow for tool-less bulk or individual drive removal and can be hot-swapped for ease of use in fast-paced environments. The system is compatible with 2.5" NVMe drives, and its PCIe Gen4 hardware facilitates high-speed storage throughput.
Centauri is designed to meet MIL-STD-810G ruggedization requirements. With its 3U form factor, half rack width, and short 20” depth, Centauri is the ideal companion to any system capturing data in edge applications. Additional features include dynamic fan speed control, lightweight aluminum enclosure, and IPMI 2.0 based system monitoring on dedicated ethernet.
An OSS sales engineer can assist in configuring Centauri to meet the specific needs of the most demanding applications. Application engineering and a unique suite of software tools are also available upon request.
