Avoid “Disk full” errors while in a job

Despite good planning, it is very common to run out of disk space in the middle of a big project. When facing this situation, many will simply connect and format an additional drive to keep working, realizing full well that spreading files across multiple locations inevitably leads to confusion, broken links and archiving challenges. To prevent this, some will backup their files; reformat a larger volume; then restore everything. But copying Terabytes of data can take days. Learn how Tiger Technology poolIt can help you expand your disk’s capacity on the fly and without affecting your existing files or applications.

Expand file servers on the fly

Every time you need to expand the storage capacity of one of your file servers (Windows or Mac OS), you need to choose between creating an additional volume and exposing your users to a new share (mount point) or spend countless hours backing up, reformatting and restoring all files onto a single larger volume so your users can continue to access a single mount point. Learn how Tiger Technology poolIt can help you expand your file servers’ capacity on the fly and without disrupting users.
