StorCase Technology, a world leader in data protective storage enclosures, today announced that it will be shipping InfoStation 1U RAID enclosures supporting the newest 2.5" Serial ATA (SATA) drive technology and SCSI or Fibre dual host connections. StorCase has once again built upon previous technology experience and design expertise to provide a compact InfoStation 10-bay 1U enclosure supporting 2.5" SATA drives and a variety of SCSI Ultra320 or Fibre 2Gbps RAID applications. "The new 10-bay InfoStation RAID enclosures are extremely space-efficient, supporting storage capacities and data throughput rates that would require much more rack space and consume considerably more power with traditional 3.5" drive enclosures," said Joel Tang, director of engineering, StorCase. "The SATA drive interface also provides the customer with a price and performance combination unavailable with pure SCSI or Fibre solutions," Tang added. Each InfoStation 1U enclosure for SATA drives is equipped with an integrated high-performance RAID controller and supports up to two SCSI Ultra320 or two 2Gbps Fibre host channels. Unique features are included, such as the Data Master® Graphical User Interface (GUI) and an integrated SAF-TE processor with StorCase SAFTEmon® web-based management software. "Fujitsu introduced the first 2.5" SATA hard disk drive to the market so that we could work with storage leaders like StorCase and deliver cutting edge solutions to the marketplace," said Lorne Wilson, vice president, channel sales and marketing, Fujitsu Computer Products of America. "Working together, Fujitsu and StorCase have created a new value and performance proposition for high performance storage users." InfoStation enclosures are accompanied by a seven-year warranty (three years for RAID controllers, power supplies and fan modules) in addition to StorCase's 24/7 technical phone support. In 1989, Kingston Technology launched a unique line of storage products for its customers. Based on a philosophy that quality products, close customer relationships, superior service and generous, comprehensive warranties inspire loyalty, Kingston's Storage Product Division (SPD) quickly earned the respect of storage customers worldwide. And now, as StorCase Technology, its InfoStation, Data Express®, Data Silo®, Rhino®JR and other StorCase enclosures have become industry standards for business and mission-critical applications in a variety of vertical markets, including state, local and federal government, video and sound editing, education and back office. All StorCase products include robust materials, undergo rigorous testing, and incorporate experienced design to ensure excellent heat dissipation, superior cooling and maximum protection against rotational vibration. These features all contribute to making StorCase enclosures the Safest Place for Your Data®. For more information on StorCase products, call 800.435.0642 or visit www.storcase.com.
