Press Release Body: Enhance Announced IP-based D2D Storage Appliance for SMBs
Santa Fe Springs, CA - March 17, 2008 - Enhance Technology today announced new
additions to the company\'s SMB market targeted EnhanceRAID R6, the R6 IP series, a
2U 6-disk based high-versatility rack storage system that delivers up to 6 terabytes
of storage capacity, performance of up to 100 MB/sec throughput, high enough to
support uncompressed video surveillance application. Protected in RAID 5
configuration running six (6+) SATA II disks, the R6 drives data via dual high
bandwidth GbE ports and supports for Windows and Mac-based computing environments.

\"Customers running with mixed platform networks such as Windows and Mac now can take
advantage of EnhanceRAID IP series' incredible price performance and breakthrough
technology,\" said Aaron Eskridge, Enhance\'s Director of Channel Sales. The R6 IP-210
is a dual-port GbE iSCSI based system that particularly attracts SMBs for
centralized storage manageability, and has been the best-selling disk based backup
appliance in the series and is widely used in D2D backup and security & surveillance
applications.
The architecture of EnhanceRAID delivers massive storage capacity, scalability, and
versatility. The standard R6 IP-210 model comes 6 independent SATA II drive channels
plus one additional NTFS based JBOD drive housed in an Enhance brand high-end rugged
removable drive carrier for data transportation. The advanced R6 XP2100 offers
expandability to eight (8+) additional SATA II drives via company's patented
SATALink bus, 2x350W redundant power supply for extra protection, and standard four
(4x) high-speed & low-noise cooling fan modules for superior airflow within the
unit, making R6 the total disk storage solution and the most versatile D2D rackmount
storage system on the market.
Enhance web-based management and monitoring utility has been enriched with new
features to make administration even easier. RAID Slicing allows administrators to
partition RAID sets into smaller segments allowing storage to be distributed on up
to 16 servers, and RAID Expansion makes adding hard drives a simple task with no
downtime required. RAID Admin also features enhanced testing and repair tools and a
more intuitive user interface.

The XP2100 of R6 is the most aggressively priced IP storage solutions on the market
today with no additional license fee for each connected workstation, and provides a
smart and cost-effective choice for data availability and reliability within storage
area networks. \"Less than a year after we shipped the first Ultra320 SCSI based
EnhanceRAID, we\'re now offering more power and more storage at an even lower price
per gigabyte. With prices starting at just $2,695 (1TB standard populated model),
we\'re offering an incredible storage solution at just a fraction of the cost of Sun,
HP, Dell or EMC.\"
