Imation to Distribute Sun Storage Media

Two companies making storage devices might as well combine their distribution efforts and Imation and Sun have done just that. The two companies have come to an agreement naming Imation the worldwide media distributor for Sun’s full line of data storage media. Under terms of the agreement, Imation will become the distributor of the full portfolio of Sun-branded tape media for entry-level, mid-range and data-center environments. Already the exclusive co-developer, manufacturer and distributor of Sun StorageTek 9840 and 9940 tape cartridges, Imation will now also distribute Sun’s newest Sun StorageTek T10000 format, as well as all Sun StorageTek-branded LTO Ultrium, Super DLTtape, DLTtape, and DDS tape cartridges globally.
