Young Minds, Inc. Adds Linux Support for Entire Product Line of CD-R and DVD-R Systems

REDLANDS, Calif., Jan. 18 /PRNewswire/ -- Young Minds, Inc. (YMi) of Redlands, California announced today that its entire product line of CD-Recordable and DVD-Recordable solutions are now available for Linux operating systems at or above the 2.2.10 kernel level. Young Minds has always supported a wide array of Unix platforms, as well as Windows NT. With this additional platform support, Young Minds now provides the widest variety of scalable disc storage solutions that can be implemented at any point and on virtually any platform within the enterprise. This allows IT professionals the broadest range of options when incorporating CD-R and DVD-R capabilities into their networks. Company President Matthew Hornbeck provided some additional reasons for the additional Linux platform support:

  • ``Over the past year, most major Unix vendors, including Sun, HP, IBM,
  • and Silicon Graphics, have embraced Linux. We have always been
  • committed to providing our customers with portable, enterprise-capable
  • data archival and distribution solutions. The rapid adoption of Linux
  • as an accepted corporate standard makes this a natural progression for
  • Young Minds.``

Young Minds' products now available for Linux include CD Studio, MPS4, and DVD Studio (now in Beta testing). The addition of Linux support further extends the portability, upgradeability and utility of Young Minds' CD-R and DVD-R solutions. These systems were already available for most Unix implementations from major hardware and software vendors, including Sun, HP, IBM, SGI, Unisys, NCR, QNX, SCO, Compaq//Digital, and Data General.

All Young Minds' CD-R and DVD-R products feature a unique controller-based design that simplifies installation, configuration, and operation with Linux workstations and servers by eliminating the need for custom drivers. The controller-based design also allows network-access from Unix, Linux, and Windows NT workstations / servers. Since the controller isolates the CD/DVD recorder from the workstation/server sending data for recording, it ensures the integrity of the recorded disc.
