	Apple Xsan 2 SAN Solutions Xsan 2 is fully integrated with Mac OS X Leopard and takes complete advantage of core Mac OS X features, such as Spotlight™ to search across multiple SAN volumes. Xsan 2 also works seamlessly with Server Assistant in Leopard Server for easy setup and configuration of SAN volumes. Leopard Server features, such as iCal® Server, Mail Server and Podcast Producer, can now integrate with Xsan 2 to support clustered file systems, improving performance and scalability and reducing the impact of a service outage from the loss of any one server.
	MetaSAN MetaSAN enables multiple users to share access to common data files in workgroups where heavy bandwidth requirements are the norm. With metaSAN, film and video editors, digital artists, healthcare specialists, and corporate users can simultaneously access a common pool of data files such as video clips, databases, satellite imagery, medical archives, or CAD files - as easily and transparently as if the content was stored on their local drive. Available for Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X, metaSAN innovates with true file sharing, native OS file system and access rights management, virtualization for Avid®, File Sequence Optimizer™, dynamic metadata master arbitration model, and seamless integration with LAN networks. These innovations ensure a perfectly transparent and reliable networked shared storage that can fuel the most creative environments in addition to greatly reducing the cost of managing mission-critical resources.

	EditShare NAS Solutions The whole idea behind EditShare is to offer a powerful yet easy-to-manage system that facilitates a creative and collaborative workflow but that does NOT require an IT expert to run it. Unlike many SANs (Storage Area Networks), which require expensive Fibre Channel cards and switches, all EditShare systems use standard 1 Gigabit Ethernet for connectivity - something you can find on virtually any modern laptop or desktop computer.
