Says Kazuhiro Igarashi, President of the Storage Systems Unit at Fujitsu Limited, "Fujitsu has evolved the ETERNUS DX Family, building on our 40 years of experience in storage development and the skills of over 1,000 storage engineers to position Fujitsu as the challenger in the top-league of the global
disk storage market.
Information infrastructure giant EMC Corporation continued to lead the external
disk storage systems market with 27.3% revenue share in the first quarter.
EMC increased its worldwide ECB
disk storage revenue market share to 28 percent in 2010 and 28.2 percent in the fourth quarter of 2010.
IDC's Quarterly
Disk Storage Systems Tracker Shows EMC #1 in External Storage for 2008
Over the next five years, IDC projects that
disk storage systems will register a 7.1 per cent combined annual growth in terms of revenue.
Today, the typical mainframe storage administrator manages on the average more than 40 terabytes of
disk storage while the typical storage manager for Unix, Linux and Windows manages from 1 to 5 terabytes.
Finally, due to the small "fly height" and inherently reversible media, high data density magnetic
disk storage is inherently incompatible with the need for both removable media and archival storage.
In the first quarter of 2003 revenue for
disk storage systems was $4.8bn, down 1% year-on-year.
The SpinServer 3300 network-attached storage platform now supports economical ATA
disk storage, allowing customers to deploy cost-correct storage for applications such as online backup and recovery, data archival and storage of fixed content and reference data.
Reaffirming its multi-pronged approach to tailor data protection solutions for customers worldwide, StorageTek(R) (Storage Technology Corp.) (NYSE:STK), the storage services and solutions expert, has introduced the next-generation of its industry-leading V2X(TM) Shared Virtual Array(TM)
disk storage system.
It has been applied productively in studies of magnetic
disk storage systems, magnetic sensors, and most recently, to nanoscale magnetic random-access memory devices.
Storage is available on hard disk drives, DVD-RAM, Jaz, and removable-bay hard disk drives, as well as RAID
disk storage.
