Baadal Device · the hardware

Two drives. Up to 48 TB. Made in India.

Baadal’s own hardware is a private cloud server that stays in your office with your firm’s files on it. Pick the low 2-bay SSD for speed or the 2-bay HDD cube for space, then mirror the drives for safety or combine them for room.

Pick a model, the size of its drives and how they work together. The numbers update as you go.

12 TB usable

24 TB of drives · half kept as a live copy

That’s roughly

  • 1.2 crore scanned PDFs at 1 MB each
  • 30 lakh photos at 4 MB each
  • 3,000 hours of HD video at 4 GB an hour

If a drive fails: work carries on from the other drive. Contact support to replace it.

Drive sizes shown are examples. We fit the drives your firm needs, up to 8 TB per SSD and 24 TB per hard drive. Usable space is a little less than the drive size once the drive is formatted and encrypted.

Need more than two drives? A 4-bay Baadal is on our roadmap.

Two models on sale

Two Baadals. Pick by what you store.

Both run the same BaadalOS and the same myBaadal apps, and both take two drives. One is built around fast solid-state drives, the other around big hard drives.

For speed

16 TB Combined, at most

8 TB Mirrored, at most

Solid-state drives have no moving parts. They are quiet and quick, which suits busy document work, Tally and virtual machines.

For space

Hard drives give the most room for the money, which suits large drawings, renders, scans and video that pile up year after year.

  • Architects and studios
  • Scan archives
  • Photo and video

Two drives, two ways

Mirrored for safety. Combined for room.

We set this up with you before the device ships, and we recommend mirrored for most firms.

Mirrored

Usable space = one drive

  • Every file is written to both drives
  • One drive can fail and work carries on
  • We replace a failed drive under your support and warranty terms

Combined

Usable space = both drives

  • Both drives pooled into one space
  • Twice the room of mirrored
  • No redundancy: if either drive fails, everything on the device can be lost, so scheduled backups are essential

Whichever you choose, keep scheduled backups too. Mirroring protects against a failed drive, not against deleted files or a lost device.

A closer look. Nothing to fiddle with.

On the roadmap

A 4-bay Baadal, for firms that outgrow two drives.

A four-bay Baadal is on our roadmap, taking hard drives, SSDs or NVMe drives. It isn’t on sale and we haven’t set a date. If you think you’ll need it, tell us and we’ll keep you posted.

Questions

What people ask about the device.

Something else? Ask us on WhatsApp

Should I choose the SSD or the HDD model?

Choose the 2-bay SSD (the low box) if your work is lots of documents, Tally or virtual machines and you want things to open quickly. Choose the 2-bay HDD (the cube) if you keep large files like drawings, renders, scans or video and need the most room. Tell us how your firm works and we’ll recommend one.

What is the difference between mirrored and combined?

Mirrored writes every file to both drives, so you get the space of one drive, and if one drive fails your files stay available on the other. Combined joins both drives into one space, so you get twice the room but no copy: if either drive fails, everything on the device can be lost. We recommend mirrored for most firms.

What happens if a drive fails?

If your drives are mirrored, the device keeps working from the healthy drive. Contact Baadal support and we arrange the replacement under your support and warranty terms. Combined has no copy, so one failed drive can lose everything on the device; that is why scheduled backups are essential there.

How much space will I actually get?

Mirrored, you get the size of one drive; combined, the size of both. Drives are sold in decimal terabytes, and formatting and encryption use a little of each drive, so the usable figure is slightly lower than the label.

Is there a 4-bay model?

Not at the moment. A four-bay Baadal for hard drives, SSDs or NVMe drives is on our roadmap, without a date. Tell us if you need it and we’ll keep you posted.

Where is it made?

Both Baadal models are designed and manufactured in India by BooleanWorld Solutions, Vadodara, and supported by the same company.

Do I need a screen or keyboard to set it up?

No. Plug in power and your office network, then open the myBaadal app on your phone. It finds the device and guides you through the rest. Your folders, users and roles are set up before it ships.
