Press Release Body: Norwalk, CT. Feb 15, 2008. Phantom Data Systems today announced
their VAR partnership with Plasmon, the top data storage and true archiving vendor

For more than 20 years Plasmon has been the trusted source for professional archive

\"Phantom Data Systems is pleased and equally excited to partner with Plasmon in
delivering true storage and archival solutions to the enterprise and SMB space\" said
Alani Kuye, President and founder of Phantom Data Systems Inc. Plasmons UDO Archive
Appliance and Enterprise Active Archive solutions provide unmatched data longevity
and unquestioned record authenticity for the long-term access and preservation of
valuable business information. Phantom Data Systems integration expertise across
multiple platforms, coupled with their impending launch of the new PhantomStor®
email archive appliance will compliments this effort for Plasmon. \"We want a true
archiving solution that will seamlessly integrate regardless of what environment,
platform, source, destination or configuration we come across. If our clients can\'t
be up and running in less than an hour, then we don\'t want it\" continued Alani Kuye.
Plasmon solutions enable companies to meet regulatory obligations and manage risk
associated with record retention, while providing competitive advantage through fast
access to archived data. \"Most companies are very reactive! they call when they are
in trouble or there is an immediate need. That\'s the only hang up we are
encountering at the moment. However we have taken a very proactive approach by
getting the word out and the response has been tremendous\" said Alani Kuye.
The Plasmon UDO Archive Appliance is a network attached data archiving system. With
a RAID-based front end, the UDO Archive Appliance offers fast access to storing and
retrieving data. Data stored to the RAID is immediately copied to UDO to provide
unmatched data protection and longevity. The UDO Archive Appliance is offered in
one- to 19-TB configurations and requires no installation and minimal configuration.
Preconfigured with storage management software, the Plasmon UDO Archive Appliance
controls the migration of data to and from the fully-integrated UDO library. With
policy-based retention of data on the disk cache, the least recently used data is
purged based on watermarks. The software also manages pre-staging of data from
optical back to the disk cache, ensures multiple, removable copies of data and the
\"immediate\" archiving of all new data to UDO storage. The network interface is
Gigabit Ethernet, providing support for Windows, LINUX, and UNIX environments.
