What is a benefit of using a Scale-Out NAS system vs.

A Scale-Out NAS system allows for the dynamic growth of the file system as new nodes are added to the NAS cluster. This means the storage capacity and performance can scale linearly with the addition of more nodes, providing flexibility and scalability that general-purpose file servers cannot match. Traditional file servers often face limitations in terms of scalability and performance as the workload increases.References:
