Intel SS4200-E Desktop NAS
The Intel SS4200-E is a network-attached storage server built around an Intel Celeron M420 processor running at 1.6 GHz with 512 MB of DDR2 memory. It provides four internal 3.5-inch SATA 3.0 Gb/s drive bays and two external eSATA ports for capacity expansion beyond the internal array. A 250 W power supply supports the chassis, which operates between 10 and 35° C at up to 90% non-condensing humidity.
Small business or home users wanting a hardware
This unit suits buyers who want RAID 0, 1, 10 or 5 managed by a dedicated Linux-based operating system with EMC utilities, plus four USB 2.0 ports for attaching external devices. It is not for users who need more than one gigabit Ethernet link, more than four internal drives in a single RAID set, or memory beyond the 1 GB DDR2 ceiling.
Four SATA 3.0 Gb/s bays define the storage limit
The four internal SATA ports set the maximum number of drives that can participate in the hardware RAID array; the two eSATA ports add extra disks but cannot join that array. Buyers must plan their capacity and redundancy within this four-drive constraint.

Questions about this item
How does the 1.6 GHz Celeron M420 perform when the SS4200-E is serving files to multiple users?
The 1.6 GHz Celeron M420 with 512 MB DDR2 handles typical small-business file sharing and RAID management; CPU load rises with simultaneous streams or heavy RAID 5 rebuilds.
What does the single Gigabit LAN port and SATA 3.0 Gb/s interface mean for real-world transfer speeds?
The Gigabit LAN port and internal SATA 3.0 Gb/s links set the maximum sustained throughput; actual speeds depend on disk performance, RAID level and network conditions.
What drive bays and mounting does the SS4200-E chassis provide for the four 3.5″ SATA drives?
The chassis holds four internal 3.5″ SATA drives in fixed bays; two external eSATA ports allow additional enclosures but those drives cannot join the internal RAID array.
