Netcell's Revolution Storage Processor Advances Toward Linux Industry Standard With Kernel 2.6.13, Novell, and Redhat Support.SAN JOSE San Jose, city, United States San Jose (sănəzā`, săn hōzā`), city (1990 pop. 782,248), seat of Santa Clara co., W central Calif.; founded 1777, inc. 1850. , Calif. -- Revolution SPU SPU Seattle Pacific University SPU Seattle Public Utilities SPU Strategy and Policy Unit SPU Sripatum University (Thailand) SPU Split, Croatia (Airport Code) SPU Synergistic Processor Unit Based RAID Adapter Cards Now Support "Driverless" Installation for Kernel.org 2.6.13, Novell Linux 10.1 and Fedora A free distribution of the Linux kernel from Red Hat along with a variety of open source utilities. Technical support is not provided for any of the Fedora distribution, only for Red Hat's full fee-based subscription of Linux. 4 Open Source Releases Netcell Corporation, the technology leader in storage processing, today announced their continued efforts to be the industry standard for storage processing. The driverless design of the Revolution SPU means users do not need complex drivers to install Linux onto hard drives connected to the Revolution storage processor card. Users need simply connect the hard drives, turn the machine on and install the software without resorting to complex and multi-setup procedures. Additionally with Revolution storage processor-based accelerator cards, users never need fear a hard drive crash; if one occurs, their computer continues running normally -- at full performance -- because the Revolution storage processor automatically detects the failure and instantly protects your customer's data. Even after the crashed drive is removed, the computer will continue to function normally, and if the drive is replaced, the data rebuild occurs in the background without affecting system performance. "What Netcell brings to high end consumers and small office users are advanced storage capability with ease of use experience," said Don Clegg Don Clegg (born June 2, 1921 in Huddersfield) was a former professional footballer who played as a goalkeeper for Huddersfield Town, Bury, Stoke City & Yeovil Town. , vice president of Marketing of Netcell Corporation. "The Revolution SPU based products are leading the way to bringing enterprise class storage management, protection, performance and expandability, and at the right price." Most RAID controller technologies are more applicable to the enterprise business environment with product implementations depending on experienced professional IT staff. Netcell's Revolution storage processor was engineered and product designed for individual users, SOHO Soho (sōhō`, sə–), district of Westminster, London, England, known for its continental restaurants. Once a fashionable quarter, it became popular among writers and artists in the 19th cent. and small offices, with the need of simplified requirements for saving, restoring and crash protecting the ever increasing volume of critical personal and professional content and data that includes, video, audio, music, photos and business related documents. The Netcell Revolution storage processor powers both the XFX XFX Crossfix XFX Extreme Effects Revo64 and PNY PNY Piedmont Natural Gas (stock symbol) S-Cure storage accelerator card products. The products are available worldwide through XFX and PNY distribution. Linux Kernel releases are managed through ODSL See Linux Foundation. , a member-funded and central body dedicated to accelerating the use of Linux computing through the following ways: Enterprise class testing and other technical support, marshalling Linux industry resources to focus areas of greatest need, and practical guidance to its members -- vendors and users alike -- on effectively working on Linux development. Novell and Redhat are the market leaders for Linux open source publishing and value add applications and services. About the Netcell Revolution Storage Processor Netcell is an industry leader in products and technologies for storage management with the state of the art Revolution Storage Processing Unit (SPU). The Netcell SPU powers a new generation of ATA (1) (AT Attachment) The specification for IDE drives. See IDE. (2) See analog telephone adapter. ATA - Advanced Technology Attachment and serial-ATA storage accelerator cards targeted at bandwidth-intensive desktop, workstation and media server applications. Revolution storage processing cards feature a revolutionary 100% hardware-based 64-bit RAID engine that offers a mainstream RAID solution with the simultaneous benefits of both RAID 0-class performance and RAID 5-class data protection. Completely driverless by design, it can be easily installed into new and existing computers in very little time and is completely compatible with existing applications. The Revolution SPU delivers high-end performance with low-cost drives, while providing enterprise-class security for data and content. About Netcell Corporation Netcell is a privately-held fabless semiconductor company A fabless semiconductor company specializes in the design and sale of hardware devices implemented on semiconductor chips. It achieves an advantage by outsourcing the fabrication of the devices to a specialized semiconductor manufacturer called a semiconductor foundry or "fab. that develops storage processors for the ATA and SATA (Serial ATA) A serial version of the ATA (IDE) interface, which has been the de facto standard hard disk interface for desktop PCs for more than two decades. The original Parallel ATA (PATA) interface was launched in 1986. host bus adapter See host adapter. , consumer, server, workstation and embedded storage markets. Using a unique patented architecture for writing and reading from multiple disk drives in parallel, Netcell enables a new class of storage product that advances the state-of-the-art for mainstream hard drive storage applications, delivering enterprise-class reliability with better performance, lower cost, and plug-and-play simplicity. Storage products based on Netcell's technology will be aimed at next-generation entertainment PCs and graphics workstations used in media-intensive applications with rigorous performance demands.
