Colorado Springs - Mar 10, 2004 STORServer, Inc. -- manufacturer of the all-in-one enterprise Backup Appliance -- announced today that it is shipping its latest line of backup recovery solutions. The new K-Series models utilize the latest in tape technology from Qualstar to provide the largest capacity backup appliances in the world. The K3000 and K5000 SAIT Backup Appliances, at 3-15 Tbyte and 10-62 Tbyte of customer data respectively, are built around the new 1/2-inch Advanced Intelligent Tape (Sony AIT) from Qualstar. SAIT more than doubles the 200 Gigabyte capacity of LTO-2, the current leader in large format tape. "SAIT uses proven helical scan recording technology coupled with a half-inch single-reel cartridge to provide 500 Gbytes of uncompressed data storage capacity per tape. This means that STORServer's new SAIT Backup Appliances hold the largest amount of data recovery in the smallest cabinet space," says STORServer President John Pearring. "This represents the highest capacity storage to date in one backup appliance footprint." The SAIT K5000, at 132 to 262 slots of 500 Gbytes of data per slot, translates to a 131 Tbyte library at uncompressed capacity in the STORServer's on-line storage pool. With compression, the pool can reach 343 Tbytes of storage space in one 3-foot by 5-foot cabinet. Based on retention options, this large appliance can handle from 10-62 terabytes of live customer data. The smaller SAIT K3000 models starts at 33 slots and expands to 66 in a 19" by 22" U rack space. Customers with large file or many file environments, like satellite, communication, or audio/video images, can now keep both backup and archive copies of their data on-line for rapid recovery. STORServer also provides disaster recovery copies of both backups and archives in remote vault locations. In Qualstar's advanced robotic design, SAIT yields industry-leading capacity, storage density, performance and reliability, says Qualstar President Bob Covey. SAIT leverages Sony's proven AME (Advanced Metal Evaporated) media with a new controlled air-flow recording deck design to deliver a recording technology providing extreme reliability. SAIT tape drives offer 500,000 hours MTBF and 30 years of projected media storage life.
