BiTMICRO^® Networks, Inc., a privately held California corporation founded by the Bruce Brothers, is a pioneer in technology of high performance, flashdisk, solid state disk and storage management solutions. BiTMICRO^® brings a new dimension to the networking world of today and tomorrow by delivering a product that becomes the heartbeat of the computing system and/or network environment. BiTMICRO's flagship product is the E-Disk^®, a component-level storage and data retrieval solution. With each intense beat, the E-Disk^® pumps through data at unsurpassed speeds while increasing the health of the network. The patented FlashBus™ technology that drives the flashdisk solid state E-Disk^® was conceived when the company's innovative founders, the Bruce Brothers, identified a means to support high-speed data transactions with storage devices that would enable mobile computing in a wide variety of environments. Applications of such sheer magnitude had not yet reached the commercial market, therefore, BiTMICRO^® targeted sophisticated applications in high-end military mobile computing environments such as aircraft, spacecraft, warfare vehicles, and mobile field units.

History

The initial concept was to pack as much storage as possible into an innovative design optimizing space without sacrificing sheer power and data integrity. The promise of such technology led to years of research and development to produce firmware and hardware designs that currently hold several patents. Due to explosive growth in broadband communications, high-speed networking, and the mobile computing markets, there's been an increasing demand for BiTMICRO's FlashBus™ technology in the commercial computing market. E-Disk^® flashdisk solid state storage is designed for enterprise installation, expanding Internet communications, and industrial applications. The E-Disk^® is the ideal heartbeat for a high speed NAS, SAN, or Server appliance.

BiTMICRO's principal goal is high performance:

• eliminating all I/O delays;
• improving storage reliability and capacity;
• increasing durability, while using less weight, less power, and less space

The E-Disk^® offers unmatched performance, data availability, and reliability across a spectrum of platforms from entry-level systems to super computers.

Technology

The core, patented FlashBus™ technology delivers an unparalleled stability and reliability, greater than any other storage solution currently available in today's market. E-Disk^® has grown into four primary product series, each addressing different networking protocols. BiTMICRO's storage solutions offer unmatched performance, data availability, and manageability across a spectrum of platforms from entry systems to super computers.
