SCSI has given way to faster standards, such as Firewire and USB. Tower enclosures. JMR Electronics plans to release the NAS module option for these enclosures later this month. Combine the Plug & Stor(TM) with RAID and SCSI enclosures by JMR to create the ultimate in server technology. The fastest, most affordable thin server storage solutions available, Plug & Stor(TM) products instantly increase network storage capacity and free up the network host from I/O (Input/Output) The transfer of data between the CPU and a peripheral device. Every transfer is an output from one device and an input to another. See PC input/output. I/O - Input/Output bottlenecks that diminish performance. They can be installed in only five minutes with zero network downtime to eliminate any interruption to productivity and profitability. JMR enclosures are designed for the Plug & Stor(TM) and can hold from four to ten devices in RAID or non-RAID storage solutions. Plug & Stor(TM) products ensure a low total cost of ownership by eliminating unnecessary hardware costs, the need for new Windows NT licenses, and ongoing complex system administration. Finally, the family's EZ-Serv(TM) browser-and Java-based management software simplifies installation and administration and allows power users to fine tune system set-up.
