<p>ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 18, 2001--American Megatrends Inc.:
<p>Editorial Summary
<ul><li>StorTrends NAS software version 1.0 is now ready for
integration into the StorTrends 1108-P, StorTrends 1312-P and
ServTrends 1100-P<li>Among the advanced features in AMI's software is NDM=

<a href=3D"http://www.ami.com/stortrends">www.ami.com/stortrends</a>;
</ul>
<p>American Megatrends Inc. (AMI), the leader in storage and
computing innovations worldwide, today announced its StorTrends NAS
software version 1.0 with NDMP support for backup is ready for
integration into its StorTrends and ServTrends storage solutions.
<p>This software is not sold separately.
<p>The StorTrends 1108-P (1U, eight drive Ultra160 SCSI hot swap
unit), StorTrends 1312-P (3U, 12 drive Ultra160 SCSI hot swap unit)
and ServTrends 1100-P (multi-purpose server appliance) are equipped
with the StorTrends NAS software, along with AMI's Indium embedded
controller, providing the customer with a full storage solution.
<p>``AMI continues to revolutionize the storage market as we
incorporate both our hardware and software design expertise to develop
a complete storage solution,'' said Michael Patellis, AMI national
sales manager.
<p>AMI's custom-designed FreeBSD NAS software offers NDMP (Network
Data Management Protocol) support for backup - the industry standard
network based tape backup protocol. StorTrends NAS Software version
1.0 implements NDMP version 3.0. By supporting NDMP, StorTrends NAS
Software enables the data to be backed up and restored using any NDMP
compatible backup software.
<p>Version 1.0 is enhanced by Network File Protocols CIFS (Common
Internet File System), the file sharing protocol used in Windows-based
networks, and NFS (Network File System), the most common file sharing
protocol used in various UNIX operating systems. All AMI software
resides on a network upgradable flash memory device, which leaves all
hard drives 100 percent available for user data.
<p>Other software features:
<ul><li>Hardware Health Monitoring - monitors hardware health in AMI
SCSI backplanes, including drive status, ambient temperature,
system voltages and fan speed and alerts the administrator of
their status<li>Network Transport Protocols (TCP/IP)<li>User-based disk q=
uota<li>Client support for SMB/CIFS for Microsoft, NFS for Unix and
Linux<li>Complete configuration and management via web browser<li>RAID le=
vel 0 (striping, for performance)<li>RAID level 1 (mirroring, for reliabi=
lity)<li>RAID level 5 (parity, for performance and reliability)<li>NTP (N=
etwork Time Protocol) to be used to synchronize the time
of the NAS box automatically<li>Error logging and notification via email =
or SNMP (Simple
Network Management Protocol) for support of enterprise
management software solutions<li>SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol=
) support for
configuration and trap notification<li>SMTP (Simple Mail Transport Protoc=
ol) for sending mail alerts
</ul>
