Iomega Introduces the StorCenter px12-350r

August 23, 2011 By Stephen Leave a Comment

Iomega surprised exactly no one by announcing an updated 12-drive rack mount storage array today.

Iomega Grows Up and Moves Out of the House

April 16, 2009 By Stephen 12 Comments

Iomega has been a staple of the desktop computing environment for decades, but the company's products have never been quite at home in even small corporate data centers.

As of now, EMC's SOHO storage subsidiary is a serious challenger in the small business and entry-level VMware ESX storage market. … [Read more...] about Iomega Grows Up and Moves Out of the House
