Secure your data with a storage server

Double up your data security

Get high capacity and excellent performance with an IONOS storage server.

Our storage servers are fully dedicated servers, featuring fail-safe enterprise-grade storage for the highest possible reliability and performance. In addition to extensive HDD storage, discreet SSD storage with high I/O is also installed for the operating system. This enables faster boot times and doesn't affect the capacity or performance of your primary storage.

In order to ensure the permanent availability of your stored data, we use hard disk mirroring (RAID) for both the data and operating system storage. This ensures that your data is stored redundantly on several hard drives.

If you need extra security against data loss, you can add Cloud Backup in your server dashboard. With Cloud Backup, you schedule individual backups whenever you want. Everything is encrypted and stored georedundantly. Any data you transfer during the backup process is also encrypted.

FAQ — Frequently asked questions

Network Attached Storage, or NAS, is a flexible standard solution and is basically just a computer in a network acting solely as a data storage system. The computer is connected via router, switch or directly to other computers and serves as external storage. For this reason, NAS is referred to as network attached storage.

The downside is that the data transfer rate is limited to the network connectivity rate. When the load is greater or the files are large, it takes longer until users have access to them. Although the storage capacity can usually be expanded, the computing power is often limited and only allows a certain number of simultaneous users, transactions and operations.

On the other hand, a storage server based on a dedicated server offers customized performance and system resources. This helps prevent the kinds of bottlenecks typical of NAS systems.

Regardless of whether you use a storage server with Windows or a storage server with Linux, you can store a wide variety of data on it just like on an external hard disk. You can also access it conveniently via the internet. With a storage server from IONOS, you not only have a high-performance data storage device, but also an entire dedicated server that you can use, for example, as a web server, as a platform for email marketing, as a game server, for video streaming, or even as a platform for an online store.

Cloud backup, on the other hand, is used to back up data of any kind and full system states in different versions. This allows you to restore any of your IT systems (servers, PCs, smartphones, etc.) from a backup at any time, even after a security incident or malfunction. Business in particular can use cloud backup to protect the IT infrastructure their customers and personnel rely on.

Backing up data locally comes with hardware procurement costs as well as operation and maintenance expenses. Plus, setting up backup routines and doing hard- and software updates also takes developer or admin hours that might be better spent on something else.

A dedicated storage server like the one from IONOS, instead, hands over these tasks to an experienced provider — and at a competitive monthly rate. With the right configuration, you'll also be able to access your data from anywhere on the internet.

Storage server users enjoy fast access times and a robust data connection, while georedundant structures and data mirroring on multiple data carriers offer additional data security. IONOS has built and operates the data centers housing their servers from the ground up to be redundant and fail-safe. There are also other comprehensive security features to ensure the extensive protection of your data against unauthorized third-party access.
