April 11, 2006, Burlington, Acronis,
Inc. (www.acronis.com), the
technological leader in storage management software, announced the
latest upgrade to Acronis
Disk Director Server and Acronis
Disk Director Suite are now shipping. The latest release adds
support for 64-bit Windows, which Microsoft began shipping last
year.
"Adding support for 64-bit Windows is invaluable
for corporate users that require all new applications support
64-bit Windows," said Max Tsypliaev, chairman of Acronis. "The
industry trend to 64-bit computing demands 64-bit computing and
Acronis delivers.
"Acronis Disk Director Server is the natural
companion to the Acronis True Image corporate products announced
last month," he added. "Not only can we now back up and
restore systems running 64-bit Windows, but we also can conduct
such disk management tasks as adding or removing partitions,
resizing partitions, and recovering lost or accidentally deleted
partitions."
"The sale of systems using 64-bit CPUs is
skyrocketing," added Stephen Lawton, marketing director at Acronis.
"Gamers and other consumers who require leading-edge technology
have embraced the 64-bit AMD and Intel chips. Some corporate users
are future-proofing their IT departments by requiring that all new
applications support 64-bit Windows. There is no question that
64-bit technology is the future, and Acronis is delivering 64-bit
solutions today."
Users who have current, registered versions of
the software can upgrade to 64-bit support at no charge.
Acronis Disk Director Server and Acronis Disk
Director Suite are currently being shipped. The Server version
lists for $499; the consumer version lists for $49.99. Download
