Bolt half a petabyte onto your server.
Enterprise direct-attached storage, cabled straight to your existing FDC dedicated server. 576 TB raw per shelf, powered and racked by FDC at any of our European locations, on the network you already run on. A one-time hardware release at clearance economics.
Deep, cheap, and racked for you
Recertified enterprise hardware at clearance economics: redundant, and attached to the server you already run.
576 TB raw per shelf
A 60-bay WD Ultrastar Data60 packed with 48 × He12 12TB enterprise drives, for ~460 TB usable on ZFS RAIDZ2.
Dual PSU, redundant power
Every shelf ships with fully redundant, hot-swap power supplies. A PSU failure never takes your storage offline.
Expands the server you already run
External SAS HBA to your existing FDC box. No new server, no new login, no new vendor — the shelf becomes block storage.
24-month drive SLA
Next-business-day drive replacement from our on-site spare pool, for two full years from allocation.
European footprint
Deploy across Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Paris, Prague, Vienna, Warsaw, Madrid, Lisbon and Dublin.
Monthly terms, no lock-in
Clearance pricing on a month-to-month basis. No throttling, no surprises. Cancel when you're done.
Built to enterprise spec
Purpose-built for ZFS
4Kn-native drives are built for ZFS and modern Linux filesystems (ashift=12): no emulation penalty, no partial-stripe writes.
Deployable across the EU
Racked, powered and cabled in the same facility as your server. No footprint or power on your invoice.
Your deep, cheap tier
Optimized for capacity and sequential throughput. For latency-sensitive primary databases or boot volumes, pair with your existing NVMe. BulkVault sits underneath as bulk storage.
Backup & DR targets
Veeam, Proxmox, restic and borg repositories with room to spare.
Object-storage bulk tier
Back MinIO, Ceph and S3-compatible stores with raw petabytes.
Media, surveillance & VMS archive
Long-retention footage and rendered media that never fits on NVMe.
Log retention & cold data
Years of logs and compliance archives at a fraction of hot-tier cost.
Bulk seed & dataset staging
Stage large datasets and seed corpora close to your compute.
Tier beneath your NVMe
Keep hot data on flash; let BulkVault hold everything else, cheaply.
