The FrankeNAS is a multi-functional appliance that uses half of its 4U capacity as a RAID 5 Array of drives with capacities up to 14TB of RAID. The other half of the unit is configured with up to 4 removable Idealstor drive bays allowing for any capacity SATA2 drive providing up to 8TB of removable disk capacity. This device allows backup administrators an all in one appliance where they schedule their backup jobs to run to the RAID 5 array for online storage and then offload that data to the Idealstor removable drives to physically take that data offsite for storage and compliance.

The FrankeNAS can be configured with up to 14TB of RAID5 capacity and up to 8TB of removable disk capacity using 1-4 Idealstor removable Drives.
