Backup Data Device

The most commonly used backup data device is the tape drive; however, tape drive technology has a new standard: VXA Packet Technology. VXA Packets represent a superior technology over the outdated track-based tape drive used by DDS and DLT.

VXA Packet Technology allows the backup data device / tape drive device to read and write data in packets just like the Internet, enabling far superior restore integrity, greater capacity, and faster transfer speeds. VXA also includes scalability featuring three different cartridge capacities.
