08-JAN-10 New, just added to the store! A package deal with support for modern versions of Windows! The low-cost 1-Gbit HBA kit that we offer in the Package Deals category has worked well for us, and complement our DB9-based T-Cards and mini-backplanes. The problem for some customers is that only Win2k/WinXP/Win2k3 are supported. We are now able to offer a package deal 2-Gbit HBA kit with support for Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows Server 2008 support, for both 32-bit and 64-bit versions! All you need is an available PCI slot! Included in the kit is a QLogic QLA2340 PCI card, a new optic cable, and a new MIA. The MIA connects to our T-Cards and mini-backplanes, so just add one of these 2-Gbit kits to your cart, and you'll be ready to go!
06-JAN-09 New, just added to the store! We've received many requests for PCI Fibre Channel cards with an internal connector, because they're virtually non-existent. We are now proud to now offer a couple variations on PCI cards with internal connectors! Check out the Fibre Channel Hardware -> HBAs / PCI Cards store category for more information!
26-SEP-07 The new store is now online. Our web host upgraded MySQL, which was incompatible with the old web store, so we set up a new web store to replace it. Unfortunately, this means that returning users will need to re-register, but ordering and payment should be simpler with the new store.
26-SEP-07 New! Our 2-Gbit product line has again been significantly reorganized and expanded! Product offerings include 2-drive and 5-drive backplanes with integrated SFP cages and also includes 1-drive, 4-drive, 5-drive, and 6-drive kits! Check out the 2-Gbit category for more details.
Also, the SGI category includes Fibre Channel HBAs and XIO cards for use with Octane/O2/Origin systems, as well as PS/2 adapters for use with SGI Indigo/Onyx/Crimson/etc. systems that pre-date PS/2 ports.
