SMC today announced the first of its TigerStore SMB NAS Storage Servers. The SMCNAS04 is a BYOD NAS with four SATA drive slots to accommodate up to 3TB of storage. The same chassis is also available as the SMCNAS24 with four 250GB drives.

Both products support RAID 0, 1, 4, and 5, with "future options" for JBOD and BIG. Features include drive hot-swappability, integrated four port gigabit switch and three USB 2.0 ports for drive expansion, printer connection or connection to USB-enabled UPSes.

Other standard features include media, FTP and USB Print Servers, disk space quota management, event logging, UPnP and DLNA support and hardware health monitoring. A full backup software application also comes bundled with the products.

The SMCNAS04 and SMCNAS24 are available immediately at MSRP's of $599.99 and $999.99, respectively.
