  Santa Monica, CA (PRWEB) May 07, 2012
  ElephantDrive, the leader in online storage, protection, and access, is proud to announce a new alliance with Thecus®, an emerging leader in network storage. The partnership will bring ElephantDrive’s unparalleled digital storage backup module to the Thecus® Network Attached Storage (NAS) servers, offering safe and secure protection to businesses of all sizes across the globe.

  “In the modern corporate world, the ability to store and share important information safely and securely is a key to maintaining and expanding business,” Florence Shih, General Manager of Thecus. “We are confident that this new partnership can deliver the best integrated cloud solution to our customers.”

  The ElephantDrive-Thecus® partnership offers unmatched simplicity, providing one program to store all important data from multiple devices on multiple platforms, and unifying the local and cloud storage experience. ElephantDrive’s backup module is designed to efficiently protect critical data by optimized transfer to a secure cloud storage system. The module enables selected data on the servers to be synchronized (in real-time) to the ElephantDrive “cloud” storage platform, with innovative, intelligent software providing accelerated and safe transfers.

  “We are excited to add Thecus® to our roster of outstanding hardware partners,” added Ryan Sweeney, Partner Development Manager for ElephantDrive. “We know cloud storage solutions are most effective when coupled tightly with fast, reliable local storage and this integration will make it easy for end users to get started.”

  Once uploaded, ElephantDrive offers military-level protection for your data, with 128-bit Secure Socket Layer (SSL) security keeping the transfer safe, and 256-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encrypting the data once it is at rest. The service also offers powerful administrative tools for versioning and archiving data, and the ability to access and share files anytime and anywhere (including on mobile devices) with the ElephantDrive “cloud.”

  ElephantDrive and Thecus® are also pleased to announce a special trial offer of their new service; new users can log in through their server’s administration interface, complete a simple application and receive 50 GB of service free for the first month. After the first month is completed, users can either upgrade to a premium ElephantDrive account – or keep using the service for free, if uploaded data is kept under 2 GB.

  Thai floods float Seagate to top of hard drive biz 

  Western Digital submerged, gurgling

  By Rik Myslewski in San Francisco

  Last year’s severe flooding in Thailand may have been human and economic disaster, but if every cloud has a silver lining, that silver has slipped into the pockets of Seagate as it retook the top sales spot among hard drive businesses, unseating Western Digital.

  “Seagate owes its return to market leadership to a fortuitous accident in geography,” said IHS storage analyst Fang Zhang in a statement. “Its HDD manufacturing plant in Thailand is located on high ground.”

  Seagate’s main competition was not so lucky. “Western Digital’s HDD manufacturing facilities were engulfed by rampaging storm waters,” Fang said, “which effectively slashed its fourth-quarter output to half of the manufacturer’s preflood volume.”

  When it released its financial results for the final three months of 2011, Western Digital revealed that it had shipped a mere 28.5 million HDDs in that quarter, just over half of the 52.2 million it had delivered in the same quarter in 2010, and just less than half of the 57.8 it had shipped in the previous quarter.

  Seagate, IHS says, endured a much slimmer decline in units sales during that quarter, shipping 46.9 million HDDs, down from 50.8 million in the previous quarter.

  

  As a result, Seagate has regained its spot as el numero uno in HDD unit sales, a ranking it hasn’t held in at least two years, according to IHS. Note, however, that as a manufacturer of higher-margin products than those produced by Western Digital, Seagate is and has been the HDD revenue leader for quite some time.

  The HDD industry as a whole took a beating in the final quarter of 2011, IHS reports, with total shipments sinking to 123.3 million units, down from 175.2 million in the third quarter.

  If there is any good news to be found in this flood of depressing statistics, it’s that gross margins soared during the supply-constrained months. Seagate’s margins hit 32 per cent, far above what IHS says was the company’s target of 22 to 26 per cent, and Western Digital’s margins hit a new company record of 32.5 per cent.

  Average selling prices (ASPs) went stratospheric, as well, with Seagate’s ASP rising from $55 in the third quarter to $68 in the fourth, and Western Digital floating up from from $46 to a rather astonishing $69 in the fourth.

  IHS expects that although pre-flood pricing is not expected to return “anytime soon,” the HDD business should begin its return to normalcy at the end of this quarter.

  If only that return were as quick and painless for those millions of Thais affected by the murderous floods. ®

  Toshiba Signs Agreement with WD on Acquisition of HDD Manufacturing Equipment and Transfer of HDD Manufacturing Facility 

  TOKYO — Toshiba Corporation (TOKYO: 6502) today    announced    that    it    has entered into a definitive agreement with Western Digital Corporation (NYSE: WDC) on  Toshiba’s  acquisition  of  certain  of  Western  Digital’s  3.5-inch HDD manufacturing  equipment  and  related  intellectual  property,  and  the  transfer  to Western Digital of Toshiba Storage Device (Thailand) Co., Ltd. (TSDT), Toshiba’s wholly-owned HDD manufacturing subsidiary located in Thailand.

  Toshiba and Western Digital aim to complete the acquisition and transfer by March of this year after obtaining approval from the relevant authorities.

  Under the agreement, Toshiba will acquire the following equipment and intellectual property from Western Digital.

  1)  Manufacturing equipment for 3.5-inch HDDs for use in desktop PCs and other consumer applications, plus related intellectual property; and

  2)  Manufacturing equipment for near-line [1] HDDs for server applications.

  Toshiba also has agreed  to transfer  to Western  Digital  its entire shareholding  in TSDT.

  Toshiba’s acquisition of assets from Western Digital and the transfer of TSDT to Western  Digital  are  subject  to  Western  Digital’s  completion   of  its  pending acquisition of Hitachi Global Storage Technologies and regulatory approvals from the relevant antitrust authorities.

  The global market for HDD and other storage devices is expected to see sustained demand growth, driven by the continued diversification of devices requiring storage, including PCs, tablets and smartphones, and the explosive increase in data storage and archiving that will accompany cloud computing.

  Toshiba acquired Fujitsu Limited’s HDD business in 2009, expanding its product portfolio  of  small  form  factor  HDDs  for  mobile  applications  with  Fujitsu’s enterprise  HDDs.  Since  then,  the  company  has  developed  a  line-up  of storage products for enterprise applications. More recently, in July 2011 Toshiba unified the Semiconductor Company and the Storage Products Company, covering NAND flash memories, SSDs and HDDs, and is now positioned to carry out coordinated sales promotions to a wide range of customers.

  The purchase of part of Western Digital’s 3.5-inch HDD manufacturing equipment and with it the capability to produce 3.5-inch HDDs for desktop PCs, DVR and other  consumer  applications,  will  expand  Toshiba’s  portfolio  and  enable  the company to supply products covering all segments of the HDD market. It will also expand  Toshiba’s  supply  capacity  in  the  market  for  near-line  HDDs,  which  is expected  to  expand  with  the  continuing  growth  of  the  server  market,  further reinforcing a strategic segment of the company’s HDD business.

  Toshiba will transfer the shares of TSDT to Western Digital and consolidate HDD production at its two HDD manufacturing facilities in the Philippines and a contract manufacturer in China. A key goal is to further enhance cost competitiveness by boosting manufacturing efficiency.

  Following the reinforcement of its HDD businesses through this re-organization, Toshiba aims to establish itself as the leading provider of integrated storage solutions–the company that has all three key storage solutions: NAND flash, SSD and HDD.

  Outline of Toshiba Storage Device (Thailand) Co., Ltd. Address:             Pathun Thani, Thailand

  President:             Minoru Iriko

  Established:          October, 2009

  Paid-in capital:     1 billion baht

  Main business:      Manufacture of 2.5-inch HDD Employees:      About 4,200

  [1]    Note: Near-line storage is a sort of data storage supporting large capacity storage, while on-line storage is appropriate for frequent access. It features generally higher reliability than HDDs for desktop PC applications.

  Wave Signs EMEA Distribution Agreement with Origin Storage to Expand Reseller Channels 

  London—February 15, 2012—Wave Systems Corp. (NASDAQ:WAVX; http://www.wave.com) signed a distribution agreement for Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) with leading storage solutions provider Origin Storage. Origin will focus on the forward-looking channel reseller companies in the region interested in providing best-in-class data protection to their customers.

  Origin has joined with Wave to enhance and develop Wave’s reseller channel in Europe over the next year. The opportunity for resellers comes at a time when conventional security is under continuing pressure from a growing number of cyber-attacks. Most security solutions on the market rely on proprietary software vulnerable to attack. Wave, by contrast, enables security that’s built into the device, not added on, giving enterprises the ability to know their devices, data and applications.

  For securing sensitive data and safeguarding intellectual property, Wave offers a single management console for deploying and managing self-encrypting drives (SEDs). Available from leading storage vendors and based on the Opal specification from the Trusted Computing Group, SEDs offer improved security and performance advantages over software-based encryption. For organisations with Windows 7who haven’t yet migrated to SEDS, Wave enables the activation of Microsoft BitLocker^®, the native encryption feature on Windows 7.

  Andy Cordial, Managing Director Origin Storage, says: “This is a unique opportunity for resellers to offer their customers Wave’s management suite for protecting data and authentication, starting with security built into the device itself. We believe that Wave offers compelling solutions for any reseller and we’re looking forward to bringing increased awareness of Wave to the market.”

  Along with managing SEDs and Microsoft BitLocker, Wave also gives IT the power to manage a security chip that ships standard on business-class PCs called the Trusted Platform Module (TPM). Present on more than half a billion devices worldwide, the embedded security chip can be used to establish device identity, ensuring that only known machines are granted access to network resources. In conjunction with Wave software, the TPM can also signal the presence of malware lurking in the host system that can evade commercially available anti-virus software.

  Joseph Souren, General Manager Wave Systems EMEA says: “We’re pleased to partner with Origin because they’re a very well-connected and trusted distributor with a strong track record and are a respected name in the channel sector, working closely with many premier resellers.

  About Origin Storage Ltd

  About Wave Systems

  Wave Systems Corp. (NASDAQ: WAVX) reduces the complexity, cost and uncertainty of data protection by starting inside the device.
