Supermicro Exhibits New 4U 72x 3.5" HDD Storage Platform with 10GB/sec Throughput for Broadcast Media Applications at NAB 2013
Additional Systems Feature Increased Performance, Capacity and Power Savings Optimized for Next Generation Digital Content Creation, Management and Distribution
LAS VEGAS, April 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Super Micro Computer, Inc. (NASDAQ: SMCI), a global leader in high-performance, high-efficiency server, storage technology and green computing is exhibiting its latest SuperWorkstation, SuperServer® and SuperStorage platforms at the NAB Show® this week in Las Vegas, Nevada. With computing and data management demands exploding behind the scenes of broadcast media, content creation, management and distribution are key areas where Supermicro's solutions have a major impact. At the show, Supermicro will showcase a variety of high performance computing and storage solutions addressing end-to-end processes within the digital production workflow. The centerpiece of the show is Supermicro's new high capacity Double-Sided Storage® server (SSG-6047R-E1R72L) featuring 72x 3.5" hot-swappable HDDs, supporting up to 288TB in 4U. With 10GB/sec throughput, this mass storage server has the enormous capacity and bandwidth to support extreme levels of concurrent streaming and other high storage bandwidth dependent applications. Show highlights also include Supermicro's flexible, high performance, power saving 4U FatTwin(TM) architecture in a 4-node 8x 3.5" hot-swap HDD per U configuration for distribution along with a range of high performance GPU workstations, servers and a 12x GPU FatTwin VDI configuration for content development. Specialized embedded solutions for distribution and digital signage applications will also be on display at the show.
