Basingstoke, UK, 21st May 2007– RAID storage expert Infortrend® today announced that continuous and increasing demand for their products has lead to the Company to relocate their business to substantially larger premises.

The unique combination of reliability, cost-effectiveness and high performance of Infortrend's products, together with their support for virtually all storage interfaces including SAS, Fibre Channel, SATA, SCSI, and iSCSI, has undoubtedly contributed to this success and driven the extensive expansion that necessitated far larger facilities.

"Our portfolio of resellers spans numerous vertical markets, all facing different challenges and presenting many different opportunities.
