The Storage Report
=========================================================
1. News: Scaled-Down Diskcon Centers on CE

2. News: Analysts: Disk Drive Industry Ripe for Mergers
The disk-drive industry faces a dilemma: It should be
thriving, but it's not. But while analysts say the industry
would be better off with fewer competitors, none seems ready
to throw in the towel. Analysts and insiders say that the
answer could be consolidation.

4. The Channel Insider: Resellers Eye Cisco's SAN Extension
Foray
If you are a reseller specializing in storage, you've

5. News: WORM-Based App Strengthens Regulatory Compliance, Data
Security
Until fairly recently, IT managers who needed WORM (write
once/read many)-based data storage technology turned to
traditional CD-ROM jukebox libraries, WORM tape, microfiche
or even paper. But as storage vendors have begun introducing
more advanced network storage infrastructure software, the
options have increased exponentially.
