“StorageWare 1200 is priced under $2000 to blow away SCSI-based
alternatives.”
“Pogo Linux announced its StorageWare 1200 Server which delivers
225GB of Redundant data capacity (or 300GB of raw storage). The
server combines the value of IBM UDMA-100 hard drives with the
reliability of RAID to provide a redundant storage solution in a 1U
footprint. The server is priced at $1994 for a 225GB
configuration.”
“The StorageWare 1200 includes an IDE RAID card from 3Ware,
which offers data-switching technology to maximize throughput on
the server’s PCI bus while relieving the CPU of processing loads.
The RAID card offers 4 channels so that each hard drives has its
own direct connection to the server. The 1U size of the StorageWare
1200 enables customers to save space and minimize deployment time.
The server is kept cool by numerous fans that circulate
airflow.”
