Fibrenetix, leading storage provider to the content creation, broadcast and delivery markets today announce certification of the world’s first one-terabyte hard drive from Hitachi.

The Deskstar offers an unparalleled capacity and storage density. With 16x 1TB drives installed you get whopping 16 Terabytes of RAID protected storage (15TB RAID 5 and 14TB in RAID 6).

Jes Nagel, CEO Fibrenetix says, “Fibrenetix were fortunate to receive early test drives from Hitachi which has enabled us to test and certify them as soon as they became available in the market place. The Hitachi Deskstar 7K1000 hard drive delivers superior performance and reliability, as well as the highest capacity with the lowest amount of physical space needed.”

Nagel continues “The Deskstar 7K1000 hard drive is well-suited for high performance applications such as post production and digital media creation. It is built on the industry’s most reliable perpendicular magnetic recording technology, allowing Fibrenetix to extend capacity beyond that available in current products. The hard drive features a 3.0Gb/s Serial-ATA (SATA) interface and large 32 MB data buffer to provide the performance required for high-end applications.”

Leveraging a track record for reliability from previous-generation products, the Deskstar 7K1000 hard drive is built using a 5-platter design with relaxed areal density for greater reliability. To further ensure data integrity, the hard drive features a ramp load/unload design to increase shock protection and Thermal Fly-height Control (TFC) to maintain a consistent fly-height during the read/write process.

Diskology Releases Disk Jockey, Disk Copy/Backup/Diagnostic Tool

High speed bit-

Diskology (PRWEB) October 24, 2003

level copies are only one of the functions of this unique hard disk diagnostic tool, product also tests, mirrors, spans, mounts and erases hard disk drives -

LINCOLN, CA (PRWEB) October 23 2003– Diskology released the Disk Jockey today. The Disk Jockey is an inexpensive, revolutionary new hard disk copy and diagnostic tool that allows users to copy data between IDE hard disk drives at lightening fast speeds while maintaining all of the attributes of the original hard disk, including hidden folders, multiple partitions and operating system files.

The Disk Jockey is a veritable Swiss army knife of disk diagnostic tools as it includes 7 functions in one hardware product. In addition to the

high-speed data copies, the Disk Jockey also mirrors data between two hard disk drives, spans two hard disks to look like one logical volume to the computer, tests hard disk drives at the block level and verifies data the has been copied between drives is intact. The Disk Jockey can also mount hard disk drives to the desktop of your Windows or Macintosh computer to be used as standard desktop storage. The Disk Jockey can also erase hard disk drives quickly and securely using either a one-pass or three-pass erase per the National Security Administration (NSA) guidelines.

“The Disk Jockey is an amazing hard disk copy and diagnostic tool,” said

Tony Overbay, CEO of Diskology. “We tried to include all of the features

necessary for this product to become a mainstay on a technicians bench, an integrators lab or on the desktop of a high-end computer user.”

The Disk Jockey works either as a stand alone duplicator and diagnostic

product or attached to a Windows or Macintosh computer connected via either firewire (IEEE 1394) or USB 2. The product is also backward compatible with USB 1.1. The Disk Jockey works with any size drive that supports Ultra DMA and requires no additional hardware drivers when used with Windows or Macintosh operating systems that include native USB or firewire support.

The Disk Jockey carries a suggested retail price of $ 299, a fraction of the cost of similar hardware-based disk copy and diagnostic tools and is

available online via the Diskology web site, http://www.diskology.com. More

information can be found by accessing the Diskology web site or by emailing sales@diskology.com.

Raxco Software Awarded New Patent for PerfectDisk

Box Shot for Raxco Software

Gaithersburg, MD (Vocus) July 13, 2010

Raxco Software, the leader in disk defragmentation and optimization software, announced today that is has been awarded a patent by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for new file query technology that improves the speed of the disk defragmentation process on Microsoft® Windows® platforms. Raxco has incorporated the new file query technology into its PerfectDisk® disk defragmentation solution.

In order to defragment a file, it needs to be opened to determine where all of its pieces are located. This process consumes time and resources in terms of disk IO, CPU and memory. The new Raxco file query technology allows PerfectDisk to bypass the step of opening each individual file, thereby saving the time and the resource penalties this activity incurs. “With the prevalence of multi-terabyte disks in the market, it is essential that we constantly strive to improve defragmentation performance” said Joe Abusamra, Raxco’s Vice President for Operations. “Larger disks typically mean more files and more fragmentation, so it is important to be able to handle these conditions efficiently, and that’s what our new file query technology does.”

The new patent is Raxco’s third disk defragmentation-related patent for Windows. The company is proud of its leadership and innovation in this area and continues to develop techniques for improving Windows performance and the end user experience.

About Raxco Software

Raxco Software has been the industry leader in helping large enterprises, small businesses, and consumers with their computer performance and resource management needs for over 30 years. Its PerfectDisk is certified by Microsoft® for Windows 7, Vista, Windows Server® 2008 and Hyper-V. PerfectDisk products have a long history of winning the industry’s highest awards, including a perfect 5-star review from CNET Download, winner of the Windows IT Pro Readers’ Choice Awards for Defragmentation Utility and Storage Management Tools, Redmond Magazine’s Best of the Best Award, and PC Magazine’s Editors’ Choice Award, among others. Raxco’s PerfectSpeed is the industry’s first all-in-one automated PC performance suite for Windows®. Raxco also produces optimization software for HP’s OpenVMS operating system.
