The Next Big Storage Opportunity: Small Office, SOHO, and Home Networks
In-Stat estimates that by 2009, the average person will have nearly one terabyte of digital data1—data that is usually
stored on a local hard drive or even on a specific device, such as a camera. This astounding growth rate is the side
effect of our now-digital lifestyle, which includes both the paperless office and the digital home. We now use a variety
of digital tools in the workplace, including PCs, PDAs, and industry-specific digital devices like medical imaging or
surveillance systems. Our homes are no different, with digital cameras, video recorders, digital music players,
networked gaming consoles, and home PC networks. Even so, small businesses and consumers have so far been left
out of the network storage fast growing trend. High cost, complexity and a lack of small-network solutions are all to
blame. But these neglected market segments have a critical need to improve data availability to multiple users. And
because most operate without dedicated IT support, few properly protect their data with backup.
For these reasons, industry experts believe that small office and home networks are ripe for network storage. They
now need—and want—solutions that are of enterprise quality but of a cost and function that fits their environment.
Accordingly, these experts predict strong demand for small business and digital home storage and data protection
solutions for many years to come. The Intel Entry Storage System SS4200-E is the ideal solution for this market
segment. It's easy to use, flexible, reliable, and powerful—all in a package that can be customized by you to fit in
with your product line and meet your customers' needs.
