Nexsan Technologies Marks European Operations Expansion with Official Opening of French Office

Announces Sales Manager for France, Belgium & Luxembourg and five new channel partners in France

Paris, France---(December 6, 2007) - Nexsan Technologies, the leader in energy saving storage systems, today officially announced the opening of its French office and the appointment of Pierre Aguerreberry as sales manager for France, Belgium and Luxembourg. At the same time Nexsan strengthened its reseller-base in France with the signing of five channel partners.

"Nexsan has an exciting product portfolio that meets an accelerating market need for cost-effective, energy saving solutions in long-term enterprise data storage," said Joel Brahami, sales manager of CFI. "The fact that Nexsan has built up a deserved reputation as one of the most partner-friendly vendors in the market makes this opportunity even more appealing."

In addition to Rise, their established partner, and Compagnie Française d’Informatique (CFI), Nexsan has signed with digital Storage, Algos Network and SC-DAM.

"Nexsan aims to grow aggressively its share of the long-term data storage market by providing companies with disk-based back up, archiving and data access solutions that meet their escalating storage needs," says Andy Hill, vice president for Europe at Nexsan Technologies. "An official French presence is central to achieving our expansion goals in Europe."

Aguerreberry joins Nexsan Technologies with extensive experience in the storage sector, having contributed to the development of such companies as Veritas Software, Datacore Software, Evault and Active Circle.

Pierre Aguerreberry’s European objectives will be to develop a network of value-added partners, acquire new client references in Nexsan’s target markets including the world of video, broadcast and medical imaging as well as general data archiving and major enterprises concerned with saving their data reliably and securely to meet compliance requirements.

Pierre Aguerreberry says, "I am very pleased to join the Nexsan team, a company which has consistently been at the forefront of storage innovation for many years. Nexsan was one of the first vendors to demonstrate the benefits of secure archiving, disk-to-disk backup and has successfully shipped over 17,000 systems totalling many petabytes of storage to approximately 5000 customers worldwide."

Nexsan Technologies is best known for its SATABeast, an advanced SATA disk-based solution for nearline storage, disk-based backup (D2D) and disaster recovery applications and its Assureon, a secure archiving system for protecting the integrity of data in long-term storage situations.

Both products take advantage of Nexsan’s AutoMAID™ (Automatic Massive Array of Idle Disks) technology allowing it to power down disk drives to conserve energy yet provide near-instantaneous access to data. Conventional fibre channel storage consumes 187KW of energy per petabyte. In contrast, an Assureon system in Level 3 AutoMAID idle mode consumes just 6KW.
