FAQ
Core S1 questions
What can a small business actually do with the Core S1?
The common stack: company file shares with per-person permissions, automatic backup of every workstation, self-hosted tools (project boards, wikis, password managers), camera footage storage, and hosting internal or public websites. One box typically replaces several SaaS subscriptions.
What if a hard drive fails?
The included drives ship configured as a mirror, so one drive can fail with zero data loss. Swap in a replacement drive and the array rebuilds itself. We recommend adding an off-site or cloud backup for true disaster recovery, which the OS supports natively.
