Gartner, a research firm, released a well-timed research securing Fibre Channel's place in the global technology industry. This is an assurance that Fibre Channel wouldn't be pulled out from the market anytime soon despite the gradual shift of some data centers to Ethernet. Growth wouldn't be that responsive for it in the next years, but the faith of storage administrators that it can handle heavy data transfers better than the Ethernet, coupled with the Fibre Channel Industry Association's (FCIA) report for an ongoing system standards development, can be considered decent reinforcements. So, without further talk, the Fibre Channel storage drives, like the CX-4G15-300 model, will still continue to transmit data between servers and back-end storage systems notwithstanding the gradual sales growth seen in the past years. You can still expect companies, like Tab Data Systems, to offer profitable used solutions for your IT and data storage needs.
