San Jose, CA - June 09, 2005 - Netcell Corporation, the technology leader in storage processing, and XFX, the internationally renowned consumer technology innovator, today announced that Avnet Computing Components, Europe's largest distributor of PC components, will market and distribute XFX's Revo64 storage accelerator card across Europe.

"Avnet's customers have been eagerly anticipating Netcell's Revolution storage processor technology," said Sati Bamrah, product manager for Avnet.

"Avnet Computing Components is proud to be the first to offer the XFX Revo64 storage accelerator card to the etail/retail/reseller market."

"Avnet is an enormous distributor of computer components," said, Cy Brown, vice president of sales of XFX. "Having such a high volume distributor behind XFX perfectly aligns us to deliver this new technology to the European marketplace."

The XFX Revo64 storage accelerator card featuring the Netcell Revolution storage processing unit (SPU) delivers a 100% hardware-based RAID engine that powers the industry's only true hardware RAID 0, 1, 3 and JBOD storage arrays. Completely driverless by design, the XFX Revo64 can be easily installed into new and existing computers in very little time. It is also completely compatible with existing applications and does not require driver updates. If a hard drive connected to an XFX Revo64 storage accelerator card fails, the system does not lose data nor does it suffer performance loss.

"Avnet delivers a Pan-European channel for Netcell Revolution storage processors," said Bobby Sabhlok, vice president of sales for Netcell Corporation. "We could not be happier - our patented and cutting-edge storage protection technologies are now available to the wider European market."
