Storage refreshes usually come in two flavors. There’s the quiet uplift, where a vendor rolls in a new CPU, claims a few percentage points of performance, and ships the same chassis with a different sticker. And then there’s the generational reset, where the chassis, drives, interconnect, cache architecture, and management plane all move at once.
Backup and recovery infrastructure has always been the part of the data center that gets the most attention when something goes wrong, but that pattern has shifted. Ransomware has made backup the last line of defense rather than an insurance policy, and the operational expectations have shifted accordingly. Recovery times that were acceptable five years
Infrastructure for cyber resilience occupies a position in the enterprise stack that primary storage does not. When a system fails, data becomes corrupted, or ransomware locks an organization out of its environment, recovery ultimately depends on the backup platform. That reality has sustained strong demand for purpose-built backup appliances even as cloud-based alternatives have expanded.
The DapuStor R6060 is a PCIe Gen5 enterprise QLC SSD built around the company’s DP800 controller and 3D QLC NAND. The series spans U.2, E3.L, and E1.L form factors, with capacities of 15.36TB, 30.72TB, 61.44TB, and 122.88TB, plus a 245TB SKU at the top of the stack. The interface supports PCIe 5.0 x4 or 2×2
The Seagate IronWolf Pro 32TB is the NAS-tuned member of Seagate’s first 32TB CMR generation, announced alongside matching 32TB Exos and SkyHawk AI variants in 2026, and has been shipping through Seagate’s channel since January. The drive is built on the Mozaic3+ platform, which uses heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) to push areal density past 3TB
Two things tend to come up first whenever the conversation turns to the NVIDIA DGX Spark. The first is the headline spec: 128 GB of unified memory in a roughly $4,000 desktop box, a number that would have seemed implausible to put on an engineer’s desk even two years ago. The second is the 200
When we published our story on Oregon State University’s plankton imaging research last November, the headline was the science: AI-accelerated infrastructure aboard research vessels, processing terabytes of ocean data in near real-time before the ship ever reached port. But something else happened quietly in the weeks that followed. Word spread across campus about what a
Comino recently sent us the latest version of the Comino Grando for review, configured with eight NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell cards, each with 96GB of VRAM, for a total of 768GB of GPU memory. We reviewed the Comino back in in 2024, configured with 6x RTX 4090s, offering 144GB of total GPU memory, as
Ubiquiti’s G6 Turret is a 4K PoE camera with a turret design, featuring on-device face and license plate recognition and full UniFi Protect integration, all at a $199 price point. The turret design sets it apart from traditional domes by placing the lens module in a ball-and-socket housing. You can physically adjust the module on
Supermicro’s JumpStart program has established itself as one of the more useful tools in the pre-purchase evaluation toolkit for AI infrastructure. Rather than a scripted demo in a shared environment, JumpStart gives qualified users free, time-boxed, bare-metal access to real production servers via SSH, IPMI, and VNC, enabling them to run workloads on actual hardware.
