Poway Unified School District Sees Value in Gateway Storage
Products as Part of Their Disaster Recovery Plan IRVINE, Calif.,
March 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Gateway today announced five new
Network Attached Storage (NAS) devices featuring Microsoft Windows
Storage Server 2003 R2 and a choice of Intel(R) Xeon(R) processors
or AMD Opteron(TM) processors. As organizations consolidate and
back up their data and centralize their file and print functions,
quick and easy deployment has become a critical and decisive factor
for many IT managers and business owners. Preconfigured for simple
plug and play installation, Gateway's new rack mount storage
servers provide seamless integration into existing storage
configurations, allowing customers to get up and running quickly.
The new models are the E-9422R; E-9425R, E-9522R, E-9525R and the
E-9520T Storage Servers. NAS servers can act as file servers
hosting files or as local print servers. They're ideal for any
environment requiring end-users to continually access and share
documents that are stored and safeguarded in a central, highly
protected environment vs. a personal desktop. This includes
hospital personnel accessing medical files or educational
institutions, which require students to save their lessons to a
central server, so teachers can easily access their schoolwork. "We
are seeing increased demand for networked storage across the board
from all of our customer segments," said Barry Silvester, senior
product manager, Enterprise Storage Platforms. "These five new
storage servers give our customers powerful yet easy-to-use
solutions for all their data storage needs. Their affordability
makes them particularly attractive, especially when you consider
the benefits they offer." Organizations such as the Poway Unified
School District in Poway, Calif., are experiencing the benefits of
Gateway storage products. The district recently chose to deploy
Gateway storage platforms as part of a disaster recovery solution
for its elementary and middle schools, as well as its
administrative center. Using this system helps safeguard the school
district from partially or completely interrupted crucial
functions, such as daily record keeping, retrieving critical
student information or accessing software applications necessary
for the curriculum. The Gateway solution also provides the IT staff
with a means to manage and restore normal operations quickly and
seamlessly if a disaster does occur. "Gateway's understanding of
our operational aspects was essential in finding the right
technology to meet our disaster recovery needs," said Robert J.
Gravina, chief technology officer at Poway Unified School District.
"Gateway's disaster recovery solution allows us to maintain
business continuity in the event of a disaster, as well as recover
quickly from any disruptions to our fundamental business processes
and systems." Packing numerous high-performance features into their
compact rack mount and scalable tower designs, the servers offer
best-in-class storage technologies, including hot swappable
high-capacity SATA or SAS hard drives and redundant hot swappable
cooling and power options. The new storage servers also come
equipped with manageability features, including Web-based
management for Windows 2003 Storage Server; Gateway Systems
Manager; and Gateway Lights Out (GLO) system management. GLO brings
a high-level of efficiency to professional customers, allowing a
server to be remotely shut down, re-started and managed regardless
of its power condition. An optional low-cost remote control K/V/M
with media redirect features enables full remote control of a
server. This capability allows customers to set up, manage or add
applications from their desktop, notebook or another server through
a floppy disk drive or CD. In addition, Gateway Professional
Services can help customers plan their storage strategies and
identify the best products and technologies for their business
needs. Pricing and Availability The new storage servers are
available now, with prices starting at $2,549. For more
