Question : Backup to disk Hardware suggestions
|
|
We currently have three servers that we back up to tape using Backup Exec. The tape drive gets approximately 50% successful backups. We want to move to a disk 2 disk backup solution. We presently have about 500 GB of data to backup and this number can go up to 1 TB. So the solution needs to be scalable. We also need to take backup off site. We would prefer it to be a stand alone unit as opposed to adding internal hard drives to our existing servers. Do you have any hardware suggestions?

Well you have a few options - Take the terastation off site Fix the tape situation so tape backups offsite wont be an issue (replace drive completely/better tapes/etc) Online replication to an offsite facility (can be very expensive and bandwidth intensive) but if you have the business need for it a good solution.
