Nexsan's InfiniSAN D2D Disk-to-Disk Backup Wins 'Best Enterprise Storage' Award at COMDEX Fall 2001

WOODLAND HILLS, Calif., Nov. 16 /PRNewswire/ -- Nexsan Technologies today announced that Key3Media Group, Inc. and sponsors CIO, Computerworld, InfoWorld, Network World and PC World named Nexsan's InfiniSAN(TM) D2D disk-to-disk storage solution ``Best Enterprise Storage'' at the annual Best of COMDEX Awards at COMDEX Fall 2001 in Las Vegas.

A select panel of senior editors from leading technology publications InfoWorld, CIO, Computerworld, Network World and PC World chose the Best of COMDEX winners in 17 categories plus ``Best of Show.'' Decisions were based on criteria including a company's ability to resolve problems in an innovative way, and the impact and benefit they will have on the way organizations conduct business.

Nexsan's D2D disk-to-disk backup storage solution is a high-powered alternative to tape, providing enterprise-class performance at a fraction of the cost of other disk and tape systems. With the InfiniSAN ATAboy Series advanced ATA hard disk RAID storage, along with embedded Nexsan developed firmware and code, Nexsan is able to provide a lower cost-per-megabyte disk-to-disk backup solution with true hot-swappability and the complete redundancy associated with disk-based products. InfiniSAN D2D backup systems scale from 160 GB to multi-petabytes for environments ranging from entry-level to the most demanding mid-range and enterprise-class applications.

All of Nexsan's versatile InfiniSAN products are system-independent, supporting SAN, DAS or NAS configurations, and Full Fabric, Fibre, SCSI or ATA. They provide support for TCP/IP, Ethernet, Data and SCSI or IP, and for Serial, LAN, WAN or web connections.
