Disk-Based Backup Appliances Promise Faster Data Recovery and Lower Total Cost of Ownership Over Tape Storage Solutions, Claims Revinetix White Paper


April 20, 2006

Revinetix Releases White Paper Entitled "Achieving Increased Backup Availability and Portability with Disk-to-Disk-to-Disk Technology"

SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH - April 20, 2006 - Revinetix, a pioneer in Disk2Disk2Disk(TM) backup solutions, today announced the release of a white paper on data storage backup and disaster recovery entitled "Achieving Increased Backup Availability and Portability with Disk-to-Disk-to-Disk."

Targeting small and medium business (SMB) information technology (IT) decision makers, the white paper spotlights the recognized deficiencies of legacy tape backup solutions and the recent advancements with serial ATA (SATA) disk solutions that can now integrate removable RAID drives designed for portability and offsite archiving.

"For over two decades now, tape technologies have been the dominant force in backup and recovery, due to their relatively low cost and the fact that tape cartridges can be easily removed and stored remotely," said Revinetix VP of Sales Brian Clark. "Technology has now evolved to enable affordable total disk-based backup appliances to not only offer superior reliability, faster recovery times, and removable media, but also a lower total cost of ownership at only about half a penny per megabyte stored."

"Industry reports have found that IT departments spend between 20 and 30 percent of their manpower dealing with tape backup problems and that restoring data from a tape backup system can fail as much as 70 percent of the time," Clark continued. "Disk-based backup servers, alternatively, can combine the reliability of RAID 5 (Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks) hardware with hot-swappable SATA drives to mitigate risk, accelerate data recovery time, and enable unlimited offsite archiving."
