Smart Storage Technologies (SmartStor), a specialist data storage solutions company within the JSE-listed MB Technologies Group, has qualified as the first local Advanced Digital Information Corporation (ADIC) premier e-VAR (Enterprise VAR), the highest reseller level achievable.

Says Leo Baxter, CEO of MB Technologies: "We are pleased to announce that SmartStor is a fully certified ADIC e-VAR in SA. SmartStor has made a serious investment in their relationship with ADIC, undergoing in-depth ADIC certification for all personnel and purchasing the sole Scalar 10K enterprise tape library available in Africa."

"With our existing exclusive Seagate/XIOtech relationship and now this appointment and strengthened partnership with ADIC, SmartStor is committed to making high-end storage area network (SAN) technology more accessible and affordable to all South African businesses," explains Peter Blaauw, CEO of the SmartStor group of companies.
