Ximeta Ndas Driver Windows 10 Sep 25, 2019 NDAS (Network Direct Attached Storage) is Ximeta's patented technology which enables all digital storage devices (HDD, ODD, Memory, Tape Drives) direct connection into standard Ethernet networks. All users or systems on the network can directly control, use and share those devices. Is a developer of system tools and developer tools. The current developer portfolio contains 2 programs. The most popular software is NDAS Software with 13 installations on Windows PC. Best software by XIMETA, Inc. The latest driver allows simultaneous read/write access from multiple PCs, which wasn’t possible on earlier driver versions. You do now, however, have to unmount the drive before hibernating, which is a real pain. The trick is in the Ximeta driver. To the PC, it makes the network-attached Ximeta drive look like a direct-attached SCSI drive! Download XIMETA NDAS Driver 3.20.1523 (Firmware) NetDisk is the world's first consumer-friendly, external Ethernet/USB 2.0 combo hard drive embedded with XIMETA's revolutionary NDAS technology, which allows direct connection to any network without the need for IP configurations or expensive.
Networked Attached Storage that is not NAS
One of the many buzzwords floating around in tech circles is NAS, an acronym for Networked Attached Storage. Traditionally, data storage was handled by hard disks attached to large (and expensive) servers. Take those drives out of the box and plug them into your network and you can remove bottlenecks inherent in the server hardware and software. Additionally, access to data will not be dependent upon server uptime. On the surface, this seems a simple enough concept: connect a storage device directly to a network. However, enterprise-level businesses that live and die on the availability of their data need things like fault tolerance, redundancy, and failover. Thus, over the last few years a number of companies have developed, built, and marketed these high-end NAS devices. Network Appliance, HP (n?e Compaq), IBM, and EMC, and others all do very brisk business.

All high-end technologies eventually filter down to the consumer level, and
NAS is no exception. In
order to hit these lower price points, some features need to be stripped out
while core functionality is maintained. The same is true for NAS. A number of
companies including Maxtor,
Linksys,
LaCie, Dlink,
and Ximeta are now selling external hard drives that
include an RJ45
port and are meant to be plugged directly into your home or small business
network. The pricing among these vendors varies somewhat but approximately US$600
seems to be the sweet spot for 120-160 GB of capacity. The Ximeta Netdisk is
significantly less expensive at US$250. Although it works as stated, there are a
few rough edges leftover that may help explain the lower price.

Ximeta does not market the NetDisk as NAS. They call their method NDAS,
Network Direct Attached Storage. To me this sounds like an amalgam of NAS and
DASD (Direct Access Storage Device) from mainframe days. This may be an accurate
assessment as it seems their protocol may be encapsulating SCSI frames in
Ethernet packets (perhaps similar to iSCSI). According to Ximeta:

NDAS
allows direct connection to your network without a server, IP address, or a
protocol.
This is where the NetDisk diverges from the products of the
above-mentioned vendors. They all support standard network protocols and should
work with any OS. The Netdisk does not and requires a driver that needs to be
installed on each PC that will access it.
