Sandy Bridge power meets HA and VMware iSCSI

Sandy Bridge Power – The three NAS to boast Intel’s new Sandy Bridge processors and Bromolow architecture are the 8-bay N8900 (Dual-Core i3 <2120@3.3GHz>2120@3.3GHz), 12-bay and 16-bay N12000PRO and N16000PRO (Quad-Core Xeon E3-1280 @3.5GHz) NAS. Thecus’s close relationship with Intel as an Intel Storage Community Member, one of Intel’s 20 largest worldwide strategic partners, and Intel’s #1 embedded NAS producer has given Thecus priority in getting the hardware to make these NAS.
