Netgear Acquisition Steers Storage Push

June 06, 2007

While Netgear focuses on businesses, storage for the home networking market has a great outlook, says Kurt Scherf, an analyst at Parks Associates.

Scherf sees annual purchases for home networking storage devices roughly doubling from 2007 to 2010, as more people want to access digital photos, movies or other content.

"Storage is at the heart of the home," Scherf said. "It's got an important role to play."
