Business Editors, High-Tech Writers
REDMOND, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 17, 2000--Advanced Digital Information Corporation (Nasdaq:ADIC) announced today the introduction of StorNext(TM), a family of innovative network attached storage (NAS) appliances that extends NAS technology to new applications, vastly increasing its capacity and at the same time slashing its cost per MB by twenty to thirty times.
With a capacity range of from 950GB to nearly 24TB and costs as low as 1 cent per megabyte, StorNext offers network administrators a powerful new NAS appliance for managing e-mail, CAD drawings, graphics, software versions, and other vital but infrequently accessed data.
The StorNext appliance's capacity and economy advances, achieved by combining NAS technology with automated tape storage, mean that IT departments can improve enterprise productivity and reduce the cost and complexity of data management by keeping infrequently accessed files automatically available to users while removing them from overburdened active disk resources. The new family of products dramatically expands the options that Windows, UNIX, Linux, web and mixed networks can use to streamline storage management in the face of rapidly growing data. snip....
