Network attached storage expert Thecus® is pleased to announce VMware ESXi 5.5 certification for five of its latest enterprise NAS units: N8810U-G, N7710-G, N8900, N12000PRO, and N16000PRO. 

VMware 5.5 brings many powerful virtual computing features to Thecus NAS users, including easier and more powerful snapshots and cloning, teams functionality for simpler handling of multiple virtual machines, improved networking performance, and support for even more host and guest operating systems. These five models make the most of virtual machine functions by combining performance with a tried and trusted platform for SMB and enterprise users. 

A True VM-Capable Platform 

All five models are 10GbE ready, providing speeds up to 10x faster than regular gigabit connections, to handle the heavy bandwidth and throughput requirements of networked virtual computing. Plus, the N7710-G supports RAID levels up to 50, while the other four models support RAID 0 to 60 (0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60, and JBOD) for lightning-fast local storage response and rock-solid data durability. 

Thecus NAS systems offer compatibility with the latest virtualization technologies, including VAAI, and full VMware 5.5 support.
