Press Release Body = DRAPER, Utah, U.S.A. - StorageCraft Technology Corporation, a
provider of innovative security, disaster recovery and data protection solutions for
servers and PCs, today announced it has released its disk-based point-in-time backup
and disaster recovery software, ShadowProtect Server EditionT and ShadowProtect
Desktop EditionT.

ShadowProtect gives IT administrators a way to generate backups of Windows servers,
PCs and laptops by creating an exact point-in-time backup image of a complete system
or a specific volume, without any downtime. ShadowProtect also allows for bare metal
recovery of Windows systems in minutes.

"By using Microsoft's advanced backup framework, VSS, ShadowProtect creates a more
reliable full or incremental backup of an entire system, including applications and
data, such as Exchange and SQL Server," said Scott Barnes, Chief Technology Officer
for StorageCraft Technology Corporation. "With ShadowProtect incremental backups,
only the changed sectors are imaged, so more point-in-time backups can be taken at
regular intervals during the business day."

ShadowProtect allows administrators to schedule full or incremental point-in-time
backups, while the system is still online. These images are compressed and encrypted
ensuring they are securely stored until needed, in the event of an accident or
disaster.

Administrators can mount the point-in-time backups as a separate drive or mount
point so it is easy to restore individual files or folders, by simply dragging and
dropping them to the desired location.

With ShadowProtect, it's also possible to update an existing point-in-time backup.
This means an administrator can mount a backup image before restoring it, run a
virus scan and fix the backup, should a virus be detected.

"Our entire ShadowProtect line of software provides IT professionals an incredible
value for this quality backup and disaster recovery technology," said Jeff Shreeve,
StorageCraft Chief Executive Officer. "ShadowProtect includes next-generation
technology, supported by StorageCraft's years of experience in creating volume
snapshot technology which is used on millions of installations worldwide.

ShadowProtect Server Edition customers will get enhanced incremental backup features
at a price hundreds of dollars less than our competition."

ShadowProtect Server Edition
ShadowProtect Server Edition gives IT administrators the flexibility of scheduling
full or incremental backups so they can automatically protect the systems in their
environment. In addition, ShadowProtect allows administrators to perform bare metal
recovery of servers in the event of a disaster.

ShadowProtect allows IT administrators to:

· Create active point-in-time backups-scan, share, update or work with any
backup image as if it were the original volume

· Mount thousands of point-in-time backups simultaneously, simplifying file
and folder recovery

· Create and restore ExactStateT images from the StorageCraft Recovery
EnvironmentT

· Take snapshots of multiple volumes simultaneously and back them up at the
same time, reducing the time required to back up

· Remotely control the disaster recovery process without the need to
purchase additional software

· Enhance database backups such as Exchange and SQL using Microsoft VSS

· Backup only changed data, if desired, to minimize storage consumption

· Consolidate point-in-time backups for simplified image management

· Create crash-proof incrementals-continue incremental backups even
following a system crash

· Backup to any disk-based storage device, such as a SAN, NAS, RAID, USB or
FireWire.

Using StorageCraft's proven snapshot technology, point-in-time backup creation and
restoration is fast and reliable.

ShadowProtect Desktop Edition
StorageCraft is also releasing ShadowProtect Desktop Edition, which allows
administrators and authorized users to create an exact backup of a laptop or desktop
while the PC is still running. Users can keep on working while ShadowProtect Desktop
Edition creates a point-in-time backup of the complete system - including OS,
applications and personal files. These backups can be scheduled and saved to any
disk device, including network drives.

This allows users to restore their systems to an exact point in time or perform fast
bare metal recovery. In the event of a disaster, ShadowProtect Desktop Edition also
allows remote recovery of the PC.

"ShadowProtect provides a high level of protection for both servers and desktops,"
said Brandon Nordquist, Vice President of Product Management. "Many people know they
need to back up the data on servers, but there is also a lot of valuable information
stored entirely on laptops and desktops."

ShadowProtect Desktop Edition is available in North America for (US) $69.95. Special
