JMR REVEALS REVOLUTIONARY PCI BASED PSAN STORAGE TECHNOLOGY

JMR Electronics, in a bold move that signals the birth of a new application of PCI-based storage, showed their new PSAN storage technology at a demonstration for attendees of NAB 2003. JMR's PSAN was created as a high performance alternative to Fibre Channel SAN solutions and the technology will allow IT professionals to easily deploy highly scalable storage solutions at lower cost than comparable Fibre Channel solutions. With its PCI bus-based architecture, JMR's PSAN easily exceeds FC-2 performance by routinely delivering sustained throughput of 270MB/sec.

"PSAN is a brand new technology that's not SCSI, not Fibre Channel, but uses a PCI bus-based approach that enables unequaled high speed storage infrastructures with existing drive components,² Josef Rabinovitz, president and CEO, JMR Electronics, said. "PSAN technology is a new way of implementing storage, allowing fast, scalable and affordable networked storage that can be deployed at less than a penny a Megabyte.²

JMR Electronics, a leading manufacturer of data storage solutions offering the industry's widest selection of Fibre Channel, SCSI, IDE and Serial ATA storage systems, has created this "first of a kind² PCI bus-based storage technology to bring IT professionals a cost-effective, highly scalable alternative to Fibre SAN solutions.
