Cybernetics is Going Head to Head with EqualLogic

Cybernetics iSCSI SAN solutions outperform our competitors in a direct comparison. Our models include the Ethernet ports needed to sustain very high transfer rates - in fact, we have more connectivity ports than any competing iSCSI SAN. While our interface is amazingly intuitive, we integrate powerful layers of data protection into our SAN, consolidating primary storage and backup, to obliterate the need for expensive backup servers and software. Every miSAN and iSAN model includes SCSI or SAS ports for full image tape backup of the SAN, as well as eSATA and USB ports for portable disk backup. A portable disk backup is actually a mountable volume - no other SAN includes this powerful protection feature. Each iSAN is upgradeable to 10GbE - at the time of purchase, or any time in the future. Best of all, Cybernetics prices are simply unbeatable. Go ahead - we want you to comparison shop. We know you will learn that we have the better SAN at a better price.
