Sesame Workshop Library to be digitally preserved with Hitachi and Nexsan

Nexsan Technologies and Hitachi Global Storage Technologies are to provide Sesame Workshop, the nonprofit educational organisation behind ‘Sesame Street’, with a data storage solution as part of Sesame Workshop's asset and archive initiative, digitally storing 35 years of media content and making it available online for use in future productions.
Seventy-four million kids from three generations have watched at least one of the more than 4,000 episodes of Sesame Street since it debuted November 10, 1969. All of these past and future episodes, including programming from other Sesame Workshop shows, like the award-winning ‘Dragon Tales’ and ‘Sagwa, the Chinese Siamese Cat’, will be stored on a Nexsan ATABeast disk vault featuring Hitachi Deskstar hard drives.
The overall data storage capacity for the enterprise-class RAID array will total 10.5TB.
