Burlington,

performance FlashDisk
OpenRAID using
146 GB low-profile
disk drives to
provide 1.7 TB
in a single enclosure.
FlashDisk
OpenRAID models
using 146 GB disk
drives are designed
for the most storage
intensive applications
including data
warehousing, data
acquisition systems,
near-line storage
replacements,
decision support
systems, video
and audio applications
plus major e-commerce,
financial, manufacturing
and database applications.
"IT
managers can now

high performance
and high capacity
with 12 low-profile
drives running
at 10,000 rpm
said Jerry Namery,
Chief Technology

1.7 TB. The FlashDisk
82? high Data
Center Cabinet

"Open"
Architecture
FlashDisk
OpenRAID is a

plug-and-play
storage solution,

standard SCSI
disks - eliminating
proprietary host
software, and
the need for software
drivers of any
kind. It supports
hardware RAID
1, 3, 5, 1+0 and
RAID 15 for data
protection. FlashDisk
OpenRAID attaches
via industry standard
fibre channel
and SCSI interfaces
to host servers
including SUN,
HP, IBM and Intel.
