CAMPBELL, Calif., Aug. 5, 2008 -- ONStor Inc.'s recently announced (July
15, 2008) Cougar 6000 series product performance numbers were based on the
Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation(R) (SPEC) SPECsfs97(R) benchmark.
The testing performed on the Cougar unit used a version of the benchmark that
was retired in June of 2008 and replaced by the new standard, SPECsfs2008(R).
As a result, the SPEC committee alerted the company that the results
publicized were not validated and new benchmarks using the current standard
must be submitted. ONStor will, therefore, run the SPECsfs2008 benchmark and
submit and post the results as soon as they become available. These results
will be valid and recognized by the committee.
