Ciprico’s award-winning DiMeda NAS solutions deliver guaranteed access to your digital media files, even in multi-platform, mutli-vendor environments. DiMeda is ideal for the most complex environments – like non-linear editing, medical imaging PACS, and global command and control. Plug-and-play, DiMeda provides the highest level of reliability, scalability and availability to your mission-critical data – 24/7/365.

Improved Productivity

DiMeda’s networked attached storage architecture can greatly enhance your workflow productivity by enabling all users to share files across the network at data rates faster than local storage. DiMeda uses existing Ethernet networks to facilitate real-time file sharing between Windows, Mac, or UNIX via CIFS and NFS protocols. Large, rich media files can be easily transferred between workstations, specialty and client servers, or back-up and archival systems, eliminating multiple file copies in multiple formats. Users can concurrently capture and process critical data, too, eliminating crucial wait time for file copies to be transported over the LAN.

DiMeda also includes intuitive Web management software, allowing you to manage your network locally or remotely. And with premium features, like bandwidth management and storage quota software, you can easily prioritize user access and redeploy critical bandwidth according to your workflow needs.

Eliminates Downtime

Downtime is virtually eliminated with the DiMeda. Exceptionally fault tolerant, all of DiMeda’s critical components are duplicated - appliance nodes, power supplies, RAID controllers, and hot-swappable drives. By eliminating the risk of a single point of failure, access to your data is never interrupted, even in the event of a hardware failure.

DiMeda has a unique software layer that easily monitors the health of the system and automatically transfers file services between appliance nodes, so you never have to wait for your critical data.

Remote system alerts also provide continuous monitoring of the system, immediately notifying your IT administrator and Ciprico tech support of any potential performance issues. And access to the DiMeda is protected via username and password, ensuring secure remote access, anytime, anywhere.

Lowered TCO

Using DiMeda means a lowered total cost of ownership for your storage needs. Virtually plug-and-play, DiMeda can be integrated into your existing network, eliminating additional infrastructure, training, and professional service costs. By utilizing Gigabit Ethernet NIC devices at 1/10 the cost of Fibre Channel equivalents, DiMeda provides you immediate, realized savings in network components, installation, and administrative costs.

DiMeda’s integrated Fibre Channel RAID storage eliminates direct attached storage islands, too. Now your storage management and backup can be consolidated into one convenient, centralized solution. File-sharing services are also included in the appliance nodes so there is no need for per client software licenses, nor any risk of compatibility issues between software packages.

Whether you need a single system or a scaleable option for multiple terabytes of data, Ciprico's DiMeda family is the NAS solution for you.
