Hewlett-Packard will introduce <A HREF="http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,2047096,00.asp?kc=EWNAVEMNL103006EOAD">three new products at Storage Networking World</A>--its first C-class blade server dedicated to storage, an ultra-high-speed virtual tape library gateway, and a storage area network "starter kit" for small and midsize businesses. Although all three could work well in a large enterprise storage environment, HP is aiming them squarely at the burgeoning SMB storage market in its continuing battle against foes IBM, EMC, Sun Microsystems, NetApp and others in this sector.
