IceWEB Expansion Storage Shelves for Up to 1.8PB

IceWEB, Inc., provider of Unified Data Storage and building blocks for cloud storage networks, introduced its 600HC Storage Expansion shelf.

"And by supporting both block and file data, customers can easily and safely store their business and mission-critical data by adding affordable IceWEB disk expansion shelves such as the 600HC."  

IceWEB’s Unified Storage Systems with their built-in 128-bit ZFS file system, provide customers with the storage and data management facilities required to handle large, growing amounts of digital data.
