Backblaze, a leading provider of innovative online backup, indentified a major problem when they were building their data storage center. They noted that hard drives were inexpensive, but the cost of servers required to put them online wasn't. They saw a solution, and came to Protocase to help develop it. Once their solution was complete, they were kind enough to contribute their design to the public domain, which quickly became the leading open-design storage system. Protocase set up its "45 Drives" division to serve this community. 45 Drives provides systems and components, built to Backblaze's exact specifications, or with enhancements such as redundant boot drives and power supplies.
