Idealstor is a complete backup system with ejectable inexpensive IDE Hard Disks allowing users to run up to 12 simultaneous backups. A single bay unit will backup to 1 TB of data rising to 8 TB with an Idealstor appliance (native format).

Idealstor uses disks like tape, giving you best of both the technologies; it offers the speed and reliability of disk and the portability of tape. Before you invest in another tape based solution, take a closer look at Idealstor, it might just be the solution you have been looking for, but until now were unable to find.

Idealstor offers a backup platform that for the first time outperforms tape drives and libraries in performance, reliability, scalability, ease of use and functionality. Idealstor can be easily deployed and is compatible with all existing major backup software. It takes away the headaches, pain and expenses normally associated with tape based backup systems and offers you peace of mind.

Make your backup software faster!
Reliability: Disk is inherently more reliable than tape and this appliance approach will highlight that, due to the relatively low duty cycle that these disks will be subjected to as compared to online disk arrays. In addition, the benefits of automation will be realized with much fewer moving parts compared to a tape library or robotic solutions Software Agnostic: Idealstor is currently compatible with the following backup packages:

• Ibac 2.0
• Veritas Backup Exec v10.0
• CA Brighstor v11.0
• Arc Serve 2000 sp4
• Arcserve Brightstor 9.0
