May 8, 2001 : Sun Delivers 10 TB Storage Appliance

📅 May 8, 2001 - Hardware manufacturing giant Sun Microsystems Inc. (sun.com) announced on Tuesday that it had introduced the new Sun StorEdge N8400 and N8600 filers, expanding its presence in the Network Attached Storage market.

According to Sun, the StorEdge N8000 filer series delivers the industry's most scalable family of NAS appliances, growing from 200 gigabytes to over 10 terabytes of usable capacity in a standalone configuration.
The company says that Sun customers can now add NAS storage to their network configuration. And those interested in a single-vendor configuration can add the storage technology to their end-to-end Sun system.
Sun also announced that the Sun StorEdge N8400 and N8600 filers have successfully completed the Oracle Storage Compatability Program NAS test suite for Oracle database environments. The qualification, already awarded to the Sun StorEdge N8200 filer in February, certifies that the entire filer series has been qualified for seamless integration into data centers using Oracle databases.
Sun says it is continuing to execute its open storage networks strategy. The company points out that earlier this year it released customer-ready SAN solutions that are easy to deploy and use in all major operating environments. Now Sun is extending its NAS line to over 10 TBs, while delivering an open solution that operates with Solaris, UNIX and Windows NT.
