      Acopia Expands Functionality with Next Version of Network File Virtualization Product

      Acopia Networks, of Lowell, Mass., has introduced version 2.0 of its network file virtualization products.

      Version 2.0, which runs all three of Acopias ARX platforms, provides global network file services and an enterprise-wide namespace for files called the Global Presentation Namespace. The namespace functionality extends virtualization benefits across multiple switches and sites, according to the company.

      The new version also offers real-time performance load balancing, which balances data access and optimizes the utilization of existing file servers. Other features include new utilities to deploy and manage services, including a graphical user interface application that simplifies the configuration and management of ARX services and a site analysis tool that analyzes existing file servers and data for ways to improve performance and manageability.

      LaCie, Hitachi Collaborate on External Hard Drives

      LaCie, of Hillsboro, Ore., will collaborate with Hitachi Global Storage Technologies to develop three external hard drives with very large capacities.

      LaCie will use the 500GB Hitachi Deskstar 7K500 hard drive to develop all three of its external hard drives because it has features that make it particularly well-suited for digital video editing, multi-drive RAID storage and other high-bandwidth applications, according to Olivier Mirloup, LaCies senior product manager.

      LaCie will use the Hitachi Deskstar 7K500 as the basis for the LaCie Biggest F800, a 4-bay RAID subsystem with 2TB of storage; the LaCie Ethernet Disk mini, a network hard drive with 500GB of shared storage space; and the LaCie Bigger Disk Extreme, a drive that supports multi-stream audio and video editing with burst transfer rates of up to 85MB/sec and 2TB of capacity.
