Giada Introduces Mini-ITX Mainboard Designed For NAS Systems – GIADA N70E-DR
Giada technology recently announced the GIADA N70E-DR motherboard, perfect for building entry-level Network Attached Storage (NAS) servers. The board is built using the compact and powerful Mini ITX board design, which means it takes up only 17x17cm in space. It features an Intel Celeron C1007U ‘Ivy Bridge’ processor, dual Intel 82583V Gigabit Ethernet ports and it supports six SATA interfaces (four SATA III and two SATA II) with support for RAID 0, 1, 5, 10, with data security protection. The GIADA N70E-DR motherboard has an MSRP of $169.
Small mini-ITX motherboards are wonderful for keeping the total build small and organized and they draw very little power. How does the GIADA N70E-DR motherboard differ from the others? One problem is, often times mini-ITX boards often don’t have all the advanced features you would want – for example many boards only have only two SATA ports. The GIADA N70E-DR provides six SATA Interfaces (two of which are SATA3.0) with native RAID 0, 1, 5, 10. The board features 2 USB 3.0 high-speed data interface ports. There is also intelligent hardware monitoring and management functions such as the chassis out of the box alarm; CPU overheating alarm; and the abnormal power state alarm. For data security the board provides a set of TPM pins for an optional TPM module for data security protection.
