Hardware from 45Drives: Enterprise-Grade Without Proprietary Limitations
The standalone server market presents a mix of trade-offs, legacy vendors offer reliability and convenience but come with vendor lock-in, while low-cost offshore hardware lacks support and introduces risk in enterprise settings. 45Drives delivers the best of both worlds: open-design, enterprise-grade hardware with full support and no lock-in. From 4- to 77-bay storage servers, hybrid and all-flash configurations, virtualization platforms, and high-performance compute to secure drive wiping appliances, Ceph gateways, and enterprise PCs—we provide integrated, flexible solutions built for demanding workloads.
