WikitipDemartek adds Connector types to Storage Networking Interface ComparisonA new "Connector Types" section has been added to the Demartek Storage Network Interface Comparison reference page. Information for mini SAS, Copper CX4, Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP and SFP+) and Quad Small Form-factor Pluggable (QSFP and QSFP+) connectors has been provided. This includes the mini-SFP that is required for some of the newer, more dense 64-port switch blades.

Featured How-To Note |
Planning a Green Storage InitiativeFluctuating energy prices have heightened electricity and energy consumption as a major issue within the technology community. IT is a significant consumer of energy and IT energy costs have been rising disproportionately because of continued investment in denser IT equipment. Estimates from the EPA and others indicate that IT will account for 3% of energy consumption by 2012. |
