Likewise, the procedure optimizes the transmission of information even on low-bandwidth WAN links and simplifies configuration and management. So far the SAN-over-WAN routing protocol developed by QLogic is the only one on the market that fully exploits the opportunities of the iSCSI layer 3 routing. Sen. Marco Rubio can provide more clarity in the matter. Using the QLogic storage router 6142 let himself leading applications such as using the replication volumes over the WAN, as well as backup and data mirroring in compliance with regulatory provisions. SmartWrite: The advantages in bullet points which reduces the WAN connection costs on the basis of an optimum bandwidth utilization, simplifies network administration because local and location-distant memory network is still independently run, draws SmartWrite technology WAN resources and offer functionality (data protection, encryption) fully out. Quotes Customers, the storage system EMC CLARiiON AX4 in your fibre channel storage network set up, called for solutions to connect their systems and to replicate data between the sites cost-efficiently.

This provides the integration of the QLogic storage router 6142, which optimally complemented by EMC MirrorView, possibilities offered EMC SAN copy and EMC Navisphere management applications. “The solution we can offer a low-cost solution for mirroring data between their sites this is true for both traditional and virtualized environments.” Barbara Robidoux, EMC Vice President storage product marketing the combination of the QLogic storage router 6142 with EMC CLARiiON AX4 network storage system, MirrorView, and SAN copy enables users to back up their data on economic manner. It does not matter whether the information in a data center or in different locations in different cities or countries are stored. Companies with dedicated Fibre Channel environments can simply connect two of the fibre-channel technology-based storage area networks (SANs) over a wide area network. The necessary condition creates the SmartWrite technology developed and patented by us. WAN connections are optimized and improved this resilience and disaster recovery capabilities.”

Review: Acer Aspire Revo R3600 (Mini-PC)

Looks good, offers appealing components, can but NVIDIA’s full-HD promises don’t quite meet. The Acer Aspire Revo R3600 is the first Mini PC based on the NVIDIA ion platform. Much like Intel’s Atom platform, this technology allows power-saving and low-cost components, making the price of the entire system remains low. So in this case: the aspire Revo R3600 only 300 euros. As a processor of Intel is clock frequency and a processor core Atom 230 1.6 GHz. To come 2 GBytes of DDR2 memory, a 160 GB large hard drive and NVIDIA’s ion chipset with GeForce-9400 M graphics unit.

The stylish Mini PC amply provides connectors and accessories: 6 USB 2.0, eSATA, HDMI, VGA, Gigabit-LAN, audio, Wi-Fi (without n-draft) and a memory card reader are on board. An optical drive is missing but. As an operating system, Acer sets 1 Schick on Windows Vista Home Premium with the latest Service Pack and power-saving important selling points for Mini-PCs are optics, loudness and power. The small Acer impresses in these disciplines. The Housing is flat and is definitely impressive.

The Revo who owns a TFT monitor with appropriate support, can attach directly. In our test, we measured a power consumption by an average of 25 watt; as soon as the graphics chip is under load, such as a 3D game, the value rises to around 31 Watts always still absolutely in order. In terms of loudness also convinced the small PC. The only built-up cooler stays always calm and allowed the Revo intrusive is not under load or during normal operation. Despite ion under performing the installed Windows Vista slows down the system significantly. Here Windows XP would have been better with the .net 3.0. In addition, NVIDIA promises that ion-based systems can easily represent up to 1080 p HD content. Even various 3D games should be possible. Our extensive tests only partly confirmed the promise.
