Kingston Technology Releases
Data Express DE75

Fountain Valley, CA (April 15, 1997)

Kingston Technology Company, a leading manufacturer in storage enclosures, today announced the release of the Data Express® DE75, a durable, removable drive enclosure designed especially for low-profile devices.

The DE75 is the latest addition to Kingston's Data Express family of internal, plug-and-play removable enclosures for mounting drives into 5.25" half-height internal or external peripheral slots. The DE75's compact drive carrier supports low-profile (1" high) drives, while the DE75's receiving frame easily installs into any standard or undersized half-height bay.

Constructed of rugged steel, the DE75 is designed to dissipate heat produced by high-performance drives. The DE75 receiving frame is equipped standard with drive activity and SCSI ID indicators, and a drive carrier key lock. The first DE75 model released provides a 16-bit, single-connect SCSI interface, compatible with SCA-2 low-profile drives.

"We wanted to be able to provide a rugged and reliable product, comparable to our popular DE100 enclosure, but one that could also accommodate low-profile drives and undersized half-height peripheral bays", said Dieter Paul, Director of Kingston's Storage Product Division.

"With the DE75, we can now support an even larger variety of storage solutions and can provide that much more flexibility", Paul added.

The DE75 is designed to satisfy emission level requirements for FCC class B and CE specifications. All Data Express units provide a protective "soft-start" power-on feature which regulates inrush current flow to the device. Additionally, as with all of Kingston's storage products, the DE75 comes with free technical support and an industry-leading seven year warranty.
