By default, the device has two disks, which can be configured in a software RAID at the Client's request. It has its own static real IPv4 address. It has unguaranteed Internet connectivity in a shared channel – up to 1 Gbps up to a certain traffic limit, 100 Mbps after the specified traffic limit is exhausted. It is provided with full administrative access to the machine via SSH, RDP, IPMI, etc.
