AppliedMicro Incorporates Paragon NTFS and HFS+ for Linux Drivers

Into APM821xx SOC family for OEM network storage devices

Paragon Software Group‘s NTFS and HFS+ for Linux drivers were selected by embedded processing manufacturer Applied Micro Circuits Corp. for incorporation into their new family of APM821xx GHz Processors.

The bundled solution speeds up communication between APM-based appliances and attached storage. The NTFS and HFS+ for Linux drivers enable full read/write access to both Windows- and Mac-formatted drives that are externally attached to AppliedMicro’s APM821xx platforms – making it a product for OEM network storage appliances (NAS).
 
An example from the AppliedMicro family is the APM82181 processor, a single-core system-on-a-chip (SoC) device, which offers performance, high integration and energy efficiency for multi-function storage applications such as media servers and NAS devices. The APM82181 processor provides up to 1GHz CPU speeds capable of delivering up to 2,000 DMIPS (Dhrystone Millions of Instructions per Second) of computing performance to enable storage platforms for networking applications.

Paragon NTFS and HFS+ for Linux are designed to eliminate barriers between embedded Linux devices and attached Windows- and Mac-formatted hard drives, and feature the high performance – so critical for network environments where multiple users may simultaneously download, share and playback content such as high definition Blu-ray quality video.  

Paragon Software was the first software developer to implement a set of drivers with complete read/write access to volumes of any file system. Paragon NTFS and HFS+ for Linux are based on Paragon’s own Universal File System Driver (UFSD) technology – specifically developed to provide access under various platforms (Linux, Android, Windows, Mac, etc.) to volumes of the most popular file systems (NTFS, HFS+, Ext, exFAT, etc.) – which normally would not be supported.

"Customer satisfaction is our top priority," said Chris Bergen, Senior Director of Technology for AppliedMicro. "With that said, we always strive to find the best partner products to optimize our technology and provide superior embedded solutions for our OEMs. We selected Paragon’s UFSD technology because it significantly increases the communication speed between normally incompatible platforms."
 
Tom Fedro, President of Paragon Software Group stated: "We are excited to have AppliedMicro join our growing list of OEM customers. They excel at developing top-of-the-line embedded processing power technology that helps OEMs provide superior network-storage products at attractive price points – our high-performance cross-platform drivers help them accomplish that goal."
