Quantum DXi2500-D Site Planning Manual

Product Overview

The DXi2500-D disk backup and replication appliances use Quantum's data
de-duplication technology to expand the amount of backup data users can
retain on fast-recovery RAID systems by 10 to 50 times. The result is a cost-
effective way for IT departments to store backup data on disk for months
instead of days, providing high speed, reliable restores, increasing available
data recovery points, and reducing media management. For disaster
recovery in distributed environments, the DXi2500-D system makes
automated WAN replication practical by dramatically reducing the
bandwidth required to move backup data securely between sites.
DXi2500-D solutions are integrated systems that are easy to install and use
with all leading backup applications. They provide best-in-class
performance and flexible, easy-to-use NAS interface and Ethernet
connectivity. DXi2500-D appliances are part of a comprehensive set of
backup solutions, serviced and supported by Quantum, the leading global
specialist in backup, recovery, and archive.
