PCWorld: New SMB Network & Storage Products From HP
This round of product announcements focused mostly on networking and storage, where investment is expected to rise steeply with spending on LAN hubs and switches growing by 29% per year and network-attached storage by 30% between now and 2014.
“Hewlett-Packard on Wednesday introduced a variety of products for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs), a segment that worldwide spends an estimated US$234 billion per year on IT products, the company said.
The company announced the products at an event in Cupertino, California, where executives said HP had a broad portfolio across PCs, servers, networking, storage and printing, but one that can sometimes be overwhelming to SMBs.”
