American Megatrends - A Leader in Storage and Computing Innovations Worldwide

About StorTrends
American Megatrends has been in the data storage business since 1994, with the inception of the MegaRAID Host Bus Array (HBA). By 1996 AMI was well known for its RAID expertise and was named the number one third-party host-based RAID controller manufacturer in the world. In 2001, AMI sold its MegaRAID Division to LSI Corporation, in order to focus on expanding its lineup of NAS and IP-SAN solutions. The following year, AMI launched the StorTrends Product Division, and has moved steadily forward with its sights set on once again being a leader in the storage market. Created by the same core engineering team that developed the award-winning MegaRAID controller, AMIs StorTrends development team is based in AMIs R&D facility in Fremont, California and has amassed over 60 patents in storage and data backup technology.
