We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Data Storage",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Manufacturingtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release CPU controller increases speed, performance from
GE Fanuc Intelligent Platforms UK, which we summarised at the time by saying "CPU controller has an Intel 1 GHz processor to provide unprecedented speed and performance for applications where the processing power of the current controller has
reached its limit".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Wiring analyser tests harnesses, connectors from
Clare Instruments: "A tough, portable and reliable 'all-in-one' bench top high voltage wiring analyser rapidly and easily HiPot tests cables, connectors and harnesses".
In January 2008, we covered the news from Malvern Instruments
concerning its EasyFairs Solids 2008 analysis products
- take a look at Control particle size, measurement and moisture
which says: "Two companies will be showing the latest developments in particle sizing systems for solids processing and infrared sensors for on-line measurement and control of moisture and composition".
Take a look also at the news release from GE Sensing, Inspection data viewed in 'real time',
as well as Instrumentation raises product quality from Honeywell Control Systems,
and Core2 Dual processor industrial motherboard from Axiomtek.
