1.0 ATTO FastStream SC 5700 offers data protection
The ATTO FastStream SC 5700 is an ideal solution for the cost sensitive demands of today’s networked

Adding RAID ensures your data is protected
without compromising performance. The ATTO

storage appliance which can be seamlessly
integrated into an existing storage environment
without regard to any particular manufacturer,
type of drive, capacity or speed.

for data intensive applications such as digital
video and audio editing. Virtually any high
performance computing system with a growing
need for storage capacity can use the power of the

a good backup strategy for long-term protection
of your data.
