Datasys Computer Corp in conjunction with IBM is looking for several
HP3000 sites to perform final beta-testing of their high-speed 7133
SSA subsystems. Our requirements include:
1. HP 3000 running MPE 5.5 or 5.0
2. HP 3000 must have HP Model 10/20 disk arrays, or EMC Symmetrics a
3. Mirror/iX software
4. Fast/Wide/Differential interface(s) using either HP-PB or HSC
interface.
5. You agree to become a reference site for a limited period of time.
In consideration thereof, you will have the opportunity to purchase a
limited amount of them for a substantial discount.
IBM's SSA subsystems attach to HP's existing F/W/D controllers and
offer 50-100% performance improvements over EMC 3000-family arrays, at
a 40 - 60% cost savings. Performance is even better when comparing the
Model 10/20 family arrays.
IBM will officially announce the product within a few weeks after a
successful beta period.
Other information:
1. The storage will be fully supported by IBM
2. see http://www.storage.ibm.com/storage/press/ssa/petabyte.htm for
