For small offices and businesses up to 20 networked computers, the Central Axis Business
Edition storage server provides a data storage and protection solution with simplicity and
business continuity in mind. It offers easy backup for both PCs and Macs to one central,
safe location that holds as much as 2TB of data.
Intuitive software wizards let businesses do automated, scheduled backup, and provide for
easy restore if necessary. For protection from crashes, Central Axis Business Edition server
enables RAID 1 automatic data mirroring between two drives, which means if one copy is
lost, the other is instantly available and business can continue without interruption.
Two USB ports provide connection to additional external hard drives to allow automated
backup of the Central Axis network server for off-site data rotation. Another great feature
of the Central Axis server is secure remote access to files and folders from any Internet
browser. This lets the business owner travel light and access data from anywhere, and it also
permits colleagues and clients to access selected content without the need of an FTP site.
