Nexsan SATABeast High Density Storage Solution Supports VMware

THOUSAND OAKS, CA, Sep 02 (MARKET WIRE) --
Nexsan, a leading provider of energy-efficient, long-term storage, today
announced that its SATABeast(R) high density, high reliability disk
storage platform now supports VMware ESX 3.5 and ESX 3i.

As a member of the VMware Technology Alliance Partner (TAP) program,
Nexsan has tested and confirmed compatibility for SATABeast's Fibre
Channel SAN connectivity with the VMware products.

The SATABeast is one of highest density storage solutions available in the
market today providing up to 42TB of storage in only 4U of rack space.
SATABeast also has one of highest reliability rates in the industry.
Customers report component AFR of less than 1%. The mix of reliability,
density and performance makes the SATABeast ideal for VMware customers
employing a broad range of applications including fixed content storage
and archiving, email, medical imaging, disk-based backup, digital video
security, compliance and litigation support, and rich media. Through the
VMware Technology Alliance Partner program, Nexsan has access to tools
that will allow it to develop and deliver high-value solutions to joint
SATABeast and VMware customers.

"The amount of fixed content, whether important emails and legal documents
or critical medical images, is exploding and companies of every size are
wrestling with how to store it, manage it, and ensure it is readily
accessible when it's needed most," said Bob Woolery, senior vice president
of marketing for Nexsan. "Increasingly, this fixed content resides in
virtualized, multi-tiered storage environments, and ensuring our customers
that Nexsan is fully compatible and highly tuned to support the VMware
platform is critical. Coupling support for VMware ESX 3.5 and ESX 3i with
our high reliability and high density system delivers a one-two punch for
data center managers, enabling them to reduce storage and server costs
while delivering high-performance storage for business-critical
applications."

With more than 700 members worldwide, the VMware TAP program works with
best-of-breed technology partners to provide them a comprehensive set of
VMware technical and marketing services, support, tools and expertise to
deliver enhanced value to joint customers.
