StorNext enables multiple Windows, Linux and Apple workstations to access shared block storage over a Fibre channel network. With the StorNext file system installed, these computers can read and write to the same storage volume at the same time enabling what is known as a "file-locking SAN." StorNext is used in environments where large files must be shared, and accessed simultaneously by users without network delays, or where a file must be available for access by multiple readers starting at different times.
As of February 2025, the mindshare of Quantum StorNext in the File System Software category
stands at 4.0%, up from 2.7% compared to the previous year, according to calculations based on PeerSpot user engagement data.
