FWB Fully Supports Macintosh OS Compatible System Platforms

Radius To Ship FWB's SCSI JackHammer and Pre-installed ToolKit Software

Menlo Park. May 26, 1995 -- FWB, Inc., manufacturer of the award winning
high performance Hammer brand of mass storage products, today announced
full compatibility of all current shipping FWB hardware and software
products with the new Apple Macintosh OS Compatibles including Radius'
System 100.

"Licensing of the Macintosh OS is vital to the growth of the Macintosh
market", said Eric Herzog, FWB'S Vice President of Marketing. "Since 1984,
FWB has had the leadership role in the development of Macintosh OS
compatible mass storage hardware and software products. FWB will provide
Macintosh OS compatibles with the same award winning solutions offered for
Apple Power Macintosh and Power Macintosh with PCI platforms".

A special bundle agreement signed by FWB this month allows Radius to ship
pre-installed FWB's CD-ROM ToolKit and Hard Disk Toolkit Personal Edition
disk management software on all their Power Macintosh OS compatible
computers. FWB'S universal driver software boasts special support for
Power Mac "native" mode and the new System 7.5 update. "With over half a
million installations world-wide, FWB's bullet-proof driver software was
our first choice to ensure reliable operation in the field" reports Rick
Schrameck, Vice-President and General Manager, Radius Systems.

Radius' System 100 is a ready-to-use digital imaging system that combines a
Radius Macintosh-compatible CPU and Radius Thunder IV graphics technology
with high performance components such as FWB's universal drivers for
smooth reliable operation in the field. These Mac OS compatible
manufactures including Radius have chosen FWB's Hard Disk Toolkit software
to ensure compatibility and performance with a wide range of hardware and
software products. FWB's System 7.5 compliant drivers deliver superior
performance and are required to support the large (4 GB) volume sizes
needed for professional digital video and color publishing applications.

Radius will also be shipping FWB's NuBus SCSI JackHammer with their
Macintosh OS compatible. This high performance Fast & Wide SCSI-2
accelerator is engineered for applications that demand the ultimate
performance. Fully compatible with Macintosh system 7.5 and optimized for
SCSI Manager 4.3, FWB's NuBus SCSI JackHammer was a 1993 MacUser Magazine
Eddy Award finalist for best new storage product.

FWB's full line of hardware and software is compatible with all Macintosh
OS Compatible systems including the FWB SledgeHammer 2000FMF (Editors
Choice Award, Macworld, April 1995), SledgeHammer 3500MF II (Eddy
Finalist, MacUser, December 1994), and all SledgeHammer Wide &
SledgeHammer II Disk Arrays, (Platinum Award, AV Video Magazine, March
1995).

Since 1984, FWB, Inc. has been developing mass storage and backup products
specifically for the Macintosh platform, including the Apple PowerBook,
the Apple Workgroup Servers, Power Macintosh, Power Macintosh with PCI,
and all Macintosh OS Compatible Clones. FWB products include SledgeHammer
RAID Arrays; Hammer, Hammer-PE, PocketHammer and HammerPB hard drives;
HammerDisk optical and removable drives; HammerTape and HammerDAT tape
