EMC Corp., the world's leading supplier of intelligent enterprise storage and retrieval technology, has pioneered two breakthrough developments in stand-alone digital storage. In the 1980s, when many companies stored data in large dedicated hard drives, the company essentially strapped together dozens of small, off-the-shelf disk drives into closet-size storage boxes, an innovation that stored more data more quickly. In the 1990s, the company again redefined the storage industry by introducing open systems storage that linked together two otherwise incompatible systems: mainframe computers and operating system networks, such as Microsoft's Windows NT. The company's largest unit stores over nine terabytes of data. In 2001, EMC held over 30 percent of the stand-alone storage market, and IBM held 20 percent.
