Iomega Makes REV Loader Available Globally

Global leader in data storage, Iomega Corporation, announced the global release of Iomega REV Loader 280. The new product is an innovative desktop autoloader that solves backup and archive needs for home users and small businesses. Iomega utilized standard hard drive components and combined them with removable technology to create the new REV Loader. The new REV Loader 280 provides access to 280GB* (560GB compressed) of storage, managing up to eight removable 35GB* REV drives in an amazingly compact desktop form factor less than 7 inches tall and 5 inches wide.

The REV Loader 280 connects to a server through a USB 2.0 interface, making it easy to use as a backup and archive device for multiple computers on a network -- and far easier and less expensive than traditional SCSI-based tape drives. For small businesses that require professional grade backup with removable media but need a simple, hands-off solution, the REV Loader 280 delivers automated, multi-disk data protection at a competitive price to single tape drive solutions.

The Iomega REV drive is a proven technology that is quickly becoming a business storage standard around the world. In February, Iomega announced the one-millionth REV disk shipped since the launch of REV technology in April 2004. In addition to the new desktop REV Loader 280, stand-alone Iomega REV 35GB drives are currently available in external USB 2.0, FireWire?, internal SCSI and SATA interfaces. Iomega also has the REV Autoloader 1000 rack-mounted ten-disk automation device.
