Powerful and Scalable Performance
The Dell PowerVault 770N and 775N Network Attached Storage (NAS) servers are ideal for those looking to
consolidate storage or manage large archived files. They connect to existing local area networks (LANs) or storage
area networks (SANs) offering simple deployment and powerful performance that can ultimately help you
conserve IT resources and lower your total cost of ownership.
The ability to scale capacity with SCSI, fibre channel or SAN-based storage makes the PowerVault 770N and 775N
incredibly flexible solutions that can be redeployed as your business needs change. Plus, deploying a common storage
architecture helps to reduce the complexity of storage consolidation and simplify your storage management. For

775N is your ideal choice with dual Intel
Dual Channel RAID on the motherboard (ROMB) all in a 2U rack dense form factor. If expandability is key, the
PowerVault 770N is the answer, with eight I/O channels and one embedded 10/100/1000 NIC.
Availability
Helping to keep your data continuously available, the PowerVault 770N and 775N enable you to add storage to your
network while your other systems are running. They are equipped with optional redundant hot-plug power supplies and
fans along with support for hot-plug hard drives. They also provide battery backup for cache memory, and Dell
ActiveArchive point-in-time copy gives you up to 250 snapshots to dramatically reduce your backup window.

The optional clustering capabilities of the PowerVault 770N and 775N allow you to build an infrastructure for optimum
availability. When you implement a NAS on SAN solution you get added reliability with redundant failover fibre-
channel components and improved disaster recovery and business continuity. And the array-based disaster recovery
available with Dell/EMC ® fibre-channel and SAN solutions offloads the host processing requirements so there is no
impact on host performance.
