WiebeTech adds 4-bay enclosure to SilverSATA™ all SATA Storage System product line

Wichita, KS — August 9, 2006 — WiebeTech has added a 4-bay unit to its popular SilverSATA™ product line. The SilverSATA IV holds four 3.5" SATA drives, with up to 750GB capacity for a total of 3TB (unformatted). Trays are removable and interchangeable with other SilverSATA models.

Each drive tray has a dedicated connection to an eSATA host controller for highest speed performance. If using a software RAID utility, the SilverSATA IV can be configured to achieve speeds of over 200MB/s! WiebeTech also sells eSATA host cards for computers that do not have eSATA ports.

The SilverSATA IV is a very affordable unit for users looking for a 4-tray JBOD (just a bunch of drives) or software RAID. The user configurable version of the SilverSATA IV retails at $449.95, and with four 750GB drives is $3109.95.

"The SilverSATA Series' streamlined design makes it the smallest multi-bay disk enclosure available," said James Wiebe, CEO/President of WiebeTech LLC. "We plan to continue to extend this product line, offering customers a variety of options for fast SATA speed."

The SilverSATA Series also includes a single-bay, 2-bay and 5-bay unit with single eSATA connections. Complete information on the entire SilverSATA Series lineup can be viewed by clicking here.
