KOM Networks announces support for SONY OSL 2000 Optical Jukeboxes

Ottawa, ON Canada – October 25, 1994

KOM Networks is pleased to announce that their OptiServer® products have been enhanced to add support for the Sony OSL 2000 optical disk subsystems.

The optical volumes within the jukebox, one on each side of the disk, appear as a string of disk drives. Thus the Sony jukebox would appear as a string of 40 disk drives. When a read or write operation begins, the OptiServer II device driver will move the appropriate disk into a drive automatically. Thus the jukebox is transparent to all activity above the device level of the system.

The Sony jukebox may contain between one (1) and two (2) drives, and 20 optical disks. Each disk may have a capacity of 1.30 Gb, providing a total capacity of 26 Gb of total storage in the jukebox.

OptiServer is available for immediate delivery for the following system platforms:
