Unified Storage with Enterprise Features at a Small
Business Price
Every ReadyDATA™ 5200 ships with
a full suite of advanced features
such as block-level replication,
deduplication, and thin provisioning.
With a maximum capacity of 240TB
and the dramatic performance
boost that comes from storage
tiering of SSD, SAS and SATA drives,
ReadyDATA redefines the concept
of storage for small and medium
businesses, remote offices/branch
offices (ROBO), and departments
within enterprise organizations.
Never before have so many
enterprise features come standard
on a unified storage device,
especially one with a price tag that
is comfortable for even the smallest
of IT organizations. The ReadyDATA
5200 is easy-to-use unified storage
from NETGEAR designed to address
serious data management issues with
a single system.
Common challenges the ReadyDATA
5200 is built to address include:
• Efficiently managing rampant
data growth with technology like
deduplication and compression
• Designing simple and cost-effective
disaster recovery plans with free
block-level replication
• Easily transitioning to virtualized
infrastructures with 10GbE and
virtual networking
In addition to being simple for IT
professionals to use, the all-inclusive
feature set and simplified packaging
of disk components make ReadyDATA
an easy solution to sell for
PowerShift™ partners.

interface support ensure that even in I/O
intensive virtual environments, network
bottlenecks are a thing of the past.
