StreamStor exceeds 1.6 Terabytes of sustained recording & playback

Longmont, Colorado — (July 16, 2001) — Boulder Instruments
(www.boulderinstruments.com) announced today that its StreamStor real time
storage system has exceeded 1.6 Terabytes of total storage capacity.   The
high end StreamStor PCI-816 is now scalable for sustained recording at 20
Mbytes/Sec for 1365 Minutes up to 100 Mbytes/Sec for 273 Minutes.

“StreamStor is designed to take advantage of ongoing improvements in disk
drive capacities.  Recent announcements of 100GB IDE drives by companies
like Maxtor provide a sizable 25% increase in StreamStor’s overall storage
capacity.   For many of our scientific and military customers this provides
precious additional minutes or hours of sustained digital recording and/or
playback,” said Tom Skrobacz, VP of Business Development.  “Applications
like aerial surveillance, radar recording, HDTV recording, imaging and
machine vision will benefit for these extended durations.  Additional
storage translates into extended uptime – reducing costs for customers using
bleeding edge data acquisition equipment with our StreamStor products.”

Earlier this year Boulder Instruments announced the development of its next
generation recorder under contract with MIT Haystack Observatory.   The new
products, expected to be available during 4Q, will exceed 1 Gbps sustained
data rates on a single PCI board – creating even more demand for the higher
capacity disk drives now available.

StreamStor offers the only direct to storage digital PCI and CPCI recording
and playback solutions available for the Windows and Linux operating
systems. Boulder Instruments designs and manufactures real-time disk-based
recording systems for scientific, military and commercial applications.  Its
current products can record and playback hours of digital data at speeds in
increments of 100 Mbytes/Sec.  It is a privately held company located near
Boulder, Colo. For more information, visit the Boulder Instruments Web site
