NetWorld Interop 2000 SUNNYVALE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 10, 2000--Network Appliance, Inc. (Nasdaq:NTAP, news, msgs), the leading provider of network-attached data access and content management solutions, today announced that Network Computing magazine -- for the second straight year -- has named the NetApp(R) F760 filer the best Network Attached Storage system in the Servers and Peripherals category.
The award was presented to Network Appliance as part of Network Computing's 2000 Well-Connected Awards, announced this week at Networld + Interop in Las Vegas.
"Network Appliance has consistently listened to its customers and delivered the performance, reliability, and scalability they have demanded," said Mark Santora, vice president of marketing at Network Appliance. "Our customer focus and technical excellence have been validated by a long list of Global 2000 customers and, in turn, a market-leading position in data access and storage."
"To receive the Network Computing Well-Connected award -- particularly for the second straight year affirms our view that Network Appliance products are the most intelligent choice for real-world enterprise data management solutions, and we are honored by the editors' decision."
"The Well-Connected Awards are significantly different from other IT publications' awards," said Fritz Nelson, publisher of CMP's Network Computing. "Our editors worked at length to research and test the best offerings in the enterprise arena."
According to Nelson, the products singled out in the Network Computing Well-Connected Awards are unique because "they are not a measure of popularity -- they are quality offerings tested over a networked enterprise firsthand by editors themselves. So we know that the NetApp F760 filer is truly an innovative solution."
The F760 filer is NetApp's most powerful enterprise storage solution, providing multi-terabyte capacity. NetApp filers consolidate storage for Windows(R) and UNIX(R) systems, reducing storage costs and providing access to multi-terabyte enterprise data. By eliminating the need for specialized set-up and administration, customers deploying NetApp filers can experience significant reduction in administration and support costs.
