      In a normal system with local storage (at least done the normal way) any root level / admin level access to a system means that the read only storage can be remounted as writeable. You can circumvent the controls. With a SAN (or SAN like local security not available on normal desktops) you cannot.

        An additional benefit of connecting a local drive would be the option of creating a shared storage replica. There is also an option of connecting a device called AcloudA, it would allow you to create a volume that would be connected directly to the cloud. Take a look here for more details - http://aclouda.com/

          @Oles-Borys do you have any information on the pricing for ACloudA? Seems like a really interesting product.

            I'd like to see that in action. How does it get network connectivity?

              Looks like it has a standard network connection on the card. I'd assume over the WAN like any other cloud service.

                So must be a problem for internal drive bays.

                  All you would have to do is PM your contact details for me to pass them on to the representatives which would contact you in the nearest time.

                    Just what nobody wants. Not even a price range listed = not even interested because it's that expensive.

                        I asked. It's not for sale yet. Not publicly anyway. I'll keep you informed on pricing.

                          Great! I'm not so concerned about the lack of pricing on a product that's not even for sale yet.
