TrueNAS

Enterprise Storage up to 10PB

TrueNAS unifies storage access across block, file, and object protocols, and scales to nearly 10PB in a single rack. Available in hybrid and all-flash configurations, built on the ZFS file system for guaranteed data integrity.

  • Scale to ~10PB in a single rack
  • Hybrid and all-flash configurations
  • ZFS file system, data never silently corrupts
  • Save over 70% versus equivalent AWS storage costs
  • Unified NFS, SMB, iSCSI, S3 protocol support
  • Snapshots, replication, and instant rollback

Full data sovereignty

Your data stays in your facility, under your control, not in a shared cloud environment governed by another jurisdiction’s laws.

Predictable costs

No surprise egress fees or storage bills. Capital expenditure with a fixed operational cost, budgeting is straightforward.

Performance

Local NVMe storage delivers microsecond latency. No network round-trips to a cloud region thousands of miles away.

Cloud escape

TrueNAS lets you move workloads off expensive cloud storage and save 70%+ versus AWS, without sacrificing capability or reliability.
