Seagate Technology plc (NASDAQ: STX) today announced that the company has been named an International CES Innovations 2014 Design and Engineering Awards Honoree for its Business Storage 8-bay rackmount network attached storage solution. Seagate Business Storage delivers centralized backup, data protection and remote access to critical information for small and medium-sized business organizations (SMBs) in capacities ranging from 4 to 32 terabytes.

"Seagate is pleased to be honored by the CEA for outstanding design and innovation of the industry's first hot-swappable 8-bay rackmount server in a 1U form factor," said Scott Horn, vice president of global marketing for Seagate. "This project includes not only a groundbreaking hardware design but also a new proprietary NAS OS to simplify storage management and monitoring for our small business customers. This product is only the latest in a new portfolio that further strengths Seagate's commitment to the small business space."



The 8-bay rackmount NAS boasts enterprise-class hardware inside and out making it the ideal solution for today's businesses that demand a higher level of performance and reliability for up to 250 employees. It is the flagship product for the company's growing portfolio of Business Class storage devices. Powered by Seagate's NAS OS and featuring an Intel 2.3GHz dual core processor, this network attached storage server delivers superior file transfer performance. The innovative new design of the 8-bay rackmount features eight 3.5-inch Enterprise Capacity (formerly Constellation ES.3) drives that are hot swappable for easy storage upgrades and maintenance. The system showcases a state-of-the-art fan design for effective cooling and ease of serviceability. Additionally, the redundant, swappable power supplies and dual Gigabit Ethernet connections provide that extra level of assurance that your business will stay up and running.

The prestigious Innovations Design and Engineering Awards are sponsored by the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA), the producer of the International CES, the global gathering place for all who thrive on the business of consumer technology, and have been recognizing achievements in product design and engineering since 1976.

The Seagate 8-bay 1U Rackmount NAS will be displayed in The Venetian at the 2014 International CES, which runs January 7-10, 2014 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
