IRVINE, CA and SANTA CLARA, CA--(Marketwire - July 13, 2010) - [ Paragon Software Group ], the technology leader in innovative data security and data management solutions, today announced that Paragon's [ Universal File System Driver (UFSD) ] technology has been chosen by [ Marvell ] (
With the addition of Paragon [ NTFS for Linux ] and HFS+ for Linux, based on the UFSD technology, users will be able to attach and have full access to their Windows® and/or Mac-formatted external HDDs via their Marvell-based platforms running under Linux. Furthermore, UFSD enables PCs and servers to be OS independent and achieve high performance network storage access and file sharing.
Compatible with Marvell ARM instruction-set compliant CPU processors, UFSD technology is available for products such as the Marvell® [ SheevaPlug ]™ Plug Computer, which draws so little power that it can be left on at all times, enabling high-performance, always-on, always-connected, and environmentally-friendly computing for consumers and developers.
"We're happy to find an embedded technology that further optimizes the performance of Marvell's total solution platforms, such as the Marvell SheevaPlug," said Dr. Simon Milner, vice president and general manager, Enterprise Business Unit, Communications and Consumer Group at Marvell. "Paragon's UFSD cross-platform technology offers effective read/write performance available for products like the Marvell SheevaPlug, and provides full compatibility for our CPU processor and SoC families."
Paragon's patented UFSD technology was developed to provide full high-performance access (read/write, format, etc.) under various platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, VxWorks, etc.) to volumes of the most popular file systems (NTFS, HFS+, Ext2/3FS, etc.) which otherwise would not be supported. The high-performance aspect of the UFSD technology is critical for network storage, in which multiple users simultaneously download, play back and share content.
"Marvell is one of the top chip manufacturers in the embedded systems market," said Tom Fedro, president of Paragon Software Group. "The combination of our technology with Marvell's strong feature set will benefit a variety of customers, from consumers to SMBs and enterprise."
