New ‘Toys’ @ Bitstop

(March 20, 2003) Bitstop thanks our suppliers for testing the EPoX USB Bluetooth Dongle, Promise Supertrack SX6000 and the SuperSwap 1000 hot-swappable drive casings.

  • The USB Bluetooth Dongle can make a data call to our NOC using the Nokia 7650. It allows you to send, receive, print and fax from any other bluetooth enabled device.

  • Turn fault-tolerant Promise ATA RAID arrays into professional, hot swappable storage subsystems for network servers or workstations. The removable hot swap assembly permits replacing a failed drive without powering down the server or opening the PC so data is always available
