I've been searching the web for the foreign suppliers of storage servers and
I found the "ServerDirect SDR-3101T 3U P4 Server w/ 12x SATA bays"
<http://www.serversdirect.com/system_dept.asp?dept_id=SD-043> good enough for
my need. If there is a similar product that is available in the local
market, that would be an advantage for those SMEs that are looking for
storage servers that is affordable enough. Currently, I'm looking for a
similar product and hopefully I can find it here in Metro Manila.
Thanks.
