Quantum DX30
The DX30 addresses the most significant backup
challenges facing IT professionals: the time required for backups,
confidence in creating complete backups and time to restore data.
The DX30 enhances an existing tape backup system by separating the
backup target from the backup archive. The DX30 utilizes the
inherent strengths of disk (quick access, high-speed data transfer,
and RAID protection) to improve backup functions. As a result,
your tape library can use its strengths (low cost, ability to write
large block sizes, removable media, and archival stability) to concentrate
on what it does best - archival data storage.
Here's how it works - after installing a DX30,
backup jobs are done directly to the DX30 (the backup target) increasing
backup speeds in excess of 216GB/hour. The software platform
designed into the DX30 precisely emulates a tape library (with two
to six tape drives), allowing your backup software to function without
modification. The DX30 uses RAID-protected disks to increase
your confidence (beyond 99%) that the backup has been completed
correctly and can be restored when needed.
