Quantum DX30

The DX30 addresses the most significant backup challenges facing IT professionals: meeting short backup windows, confidence that backups are complete, and the ability to quickly restore data when needed.  The DX30 enhances an existing tape backup system by separating the backup target from the backup archive.  

Here`s how it works — after installing a DX30, backup jobs are sent directly to the DX30 (the backup target) with throughput up to 1TB/hour.  By emulating a tape library, the DX30 seamlessly integrates into existing backup architectures without any changes to existing processes.  The DX30 complements existing tape libraries (the backup archive) by allowing them to focus on archive operations for disaster recovery and regulatory compliance.  Backup, restore, and archiving can now occur more quickly and more often - resulting in greater backup confidence and overall data protection.
