Dot Hill Innovation Promotes Greater Versatility in Storage System Designs
October 2014 by Marc Jacob
Dot Hill Systems Corp., a trusted supplier of innovative enterprise-class storage systems, today announced a patented technology that more efficiently ejects drive carriers in certain AssuredSAN storage system chassis.
Using a “flat” spring design, the mechanical invention described in Dot Hill’s 99th US patent, numbered 8,840,095, takes less space than traditional coiled springs. The additional space provided by the more efficient spring can be used to design a shallower chassis depth, or to allow more length for storage controller modules and power supplies.
Dot Hill’s patent portfolio builds on the extensive intellectual property behind Dot Hill AssuredSAN storage hardware and software, which deliver rock-solid, wicked-fast solutions to customers and OEM partners. Dot Hill’s continuous innovation benefits the company’s key vertical market customers in the Media & Entertainment, Telecommunications, Oil & Gas, Big Data & Analytics and Digital Imaging sectors, that require high-performing storage to support demanding applications.
