Whitepaper:Â EqualLogic TCO Analysis by ESG Lab | 2009-11-04 | Dell EqualLogic |
| This ESG Lab report examines the economic excellence of highly scalable EqualLogic iSCSI storage solutions compared to traditional direct attached storage (DAS), Fibre Channel storage area network (FC SAN), and multi-protocol solutions (defined as systems that provide FC, iSCSI, and NAS connectivity). After testing EqualLogic storage in the lab using an infrastructure encompassing seven generations of EqualLogic hardware, ESG Lab calculated the total cost of ownership (TCO) over five years for an organization requiring 80 raw terabytes of storage capacity using systems available for purchase today.

Setting the record straight: SAN defrag is vital to storage performance. | 2009-08-03 | Diskeeper |
| Data volumes continue to grow. More companies are consolidating and virtualizing their IT infrastructures and far more demand is placed on storage performance. But one aspect that often gets overlooked is the role SAN disk defragmenting plays in improving performance. In particular, companies overlook the performance degradation due to file system fragmentation within a SAN. How are companies addressing this? Some simply ignore the issue, believing that because of the inherently high performance of SANs, defragmenting offers little or no benefit. Find out what's really at stake and what the real issues are. The facts may surprise you!

Improving BIOS Debugging Using USB 2.0 Methods: Moving Beyond POST Checkpoints | 2009-04-20 | American Megatrends |
| The Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) on modern computers, whether based on legacy BIOS standards or Unified EFI (UEFI), send debug checkpoints during the initialization and boot process. Checkpoints are valuable for platform diagnostics and quality assurance. The current method of using a PCI card to display checkpoints has a number of limitations, especially with the industry shifting away from PCI expansion slots in favor of expansion using serial bus standards. As the industry moves to smaller system designs, the traditional PCI checkpoint card is not the ideal diagnostic solution. This white paper describes how AMI solves the checkpoint problem using AMI Debug Rx and other innovative USB-based debug solutions.

Access Remote USB Devices Everywhere: We Mean Everywhere! | 2009-01-01 | FabulaTech |
| Usually, when one needs to use any USB device (like scanner, flash-memory, etc) they plug it into USB port of their computer. But for all that, the device is accessible only for the computer it is plugged into. And what if someone else needs to use the same USB device? FabulaTech has resolved this problem in a different extraordinary way by implementing the USB IP strategy. They've created USB over Network which allows to work with remote USB devices over a local network or the Internet.

USB for Remote Desktop | 2009-01-01 | FabulaTech |
| While working in remote desktop session, one needs access to their local USB devices. One can easily redirect disk drive or a printer into remote session. But all the rest of your USB devices can't be redirected just as easily. Unfortunately there is no standard way to make local USB devices available in remote session. The only standard solution is plugging USB device directly to the remote server. But in the most of cases that is not acceptable. FabulaTech has successfully resolved the challenges by implementing an innovative virtual solution. USB for Remote Desktop lets one manage and work with your local USB devices from remote desktop session.

USB for Thin Clients | 2009-01-01 | FabulaTech |
| Usually USB devices connected to a Thin Client can be used in a local session only. If a device were accessible from remote session, it would give a range of unbelievable advantages and would open new boundless opportunities. Unfortunately there is no standard way to accomplish it. A local device cannot be redirected to a remote session. FabulaTech offers a completely optimal better solution for Thin Clients which allows using local USB devices in a remote session. With USB for Remote Desktop one can easily overcome any challenges. The program has been tenderly developed to access local USB devices in remote session (RDP or Citrix ICA).
