Arraid Products in Military Data Storage
Arraid has helped a number of defense contractors and military organizations deal with storage related problems in their mission critical computer systems.
In addition to the data storage solutions Arraid provides for the lifecycle support of Automatic Test Equipment (ATE) and Simulation & Training devices -- Arraid provides custom in-house designed and manufactured solutions for Range, Data Acquisition, Display Systems, and Telemetry & Radar Tracking.
Arraid has designed and manufactured custom storage solutions for airborne, shipborne, and undersea applications. Our American-made custom-built data storage solutions have been in use by the military for three decades. We have an excellent track record of performance.
The weak link in older mission critical host computer systems is the peripherals. Those many moving parts will wear out long before the computer does. Arraid is one of the few manufacturers left on earth who can design & build brand-new field-proven replacements, for obsolete peripheral replacement.
Whether you are dealing with a disk drive, tape drive, floppy drive, magneto-optical (MO), or anything else that stores computer data, Arraid likely has a solution. Our devices are 100% solid-state, using Compact Flash (CF) technology. Our solutions are plug & play, using existing cables, computers, and controllers. There are no software changes – the host thinks it is talking to the obsolete hardware that was replaced.
