DataDirect Networks' S2A (Silicon Storage Architecture) storage appliance technology is an established, field proven storage solution for high-performance cluster computing environments that delivers industry-leading I/O performance.

Furthermore, S2A provides RAID 6 protection with no performance degradation along with real-time parity checking of all read and write operations for identifying and automatically addressing data irregularities. In addition to an optimized approach enabling use of SATA drives without compromising on performance and reliability, the S2A's back-end disk channel architecture is exceptional in providing high resiliency when faced with any type of disk-side failure.
