Silent Brick Pro, Silent Brick Max Air new
Silent Brick Storage Media.
With 💙 from Munich.
Pocket Rocket.
The new Silent Brick Pro.
How do you fit so much performance, capacity and security into such a compact housing? Through clever engineering, made in Munich.
Pocket: 12, 24, 48 and even 96 TB in your pocket. The Silent Brick Pro is as small as a postcard and only 3 cm high. Weighing just 520g, it is as portable as a paperback book and the aluminum housing makes it particularly sturdy. The transparent cover protects the Silent Bricks during transportation.
Rocket: Pure speed. Thanks to 12x NVME Gen4, the Silent Brick Pro achieves the highest data rates in the X6080 controller with 100G Ethernet. This allows you to transfer data at a constant rate of up to 6 GB/s - or 100 TB in just around 6 hours.
Air Gap: The Silent Brick Pro is specially designed for Air Gap. The Silent Brick Pro gives you with up to 96 TB more than 3 times the capacity of a LTO-10 tape - with random access, built-in redundancy and NVMe performance.

This means that even large amounts of data are no problem - and all this with maximum efficiency, on just one height unit.
Jumbo: Up to 240 TB on one height unit and up to over 6 petabytes per controller X. With the Silent Brick Max Air, constantly increasing data volumes and long-range backup plans are no problem. And in VTL mode, it is the better alternative to tape.
Jet: Thanks to Serial Attached SCSI with dual wide link, data is stored and retrieved at top speed. This is good for fast recovery or turns the Silent Brick System into a fast, active VTL archive.
Air Gap: The new Silent Brick Max Air has two true Air Gap modes that can be set directly on the device and cannot be compromised. Once activated, the Air Gap can only be cancelled by a mechanical switch ("manual") or after a timeout ("Timer").
- Stationary storage container for Controller X
- Connection via high-speed SAS
- Dimensions 19 inch W x 745mm L x 1U H, weight 17kg
- Models with 49, 96 and 240 TB (gross)
- Use as SecureNAS 3P (ZFS with triple parity / SMB, NFS & S3) or VTL (Erasure Coding with 4 redundancies)
- 12x 3.5-inch HDDs, 4 each from three production batches
- Digital Audit permanently monitors the status of the hard disks
- Silent Brick Max Air: Optional two Air Gap modes (manual, Timer), permanently adjustable on the device
The new Silent Brick Max Air with optional Air Gap will be available from 2026 on.
