Disk Backup

Disk Backup

Disk Backup is backup which is performed to a disk-based storage medium rather than a tape-based storage medium. 

While tape is a rapid method for archiving data, it is serial technology. In order to restore data saved to tape, you have to find the proper tape, load it and catalogue it before you’re able to find the proper file, folder or data volume you wish to restore. This can take hours, even days, to complete.

Disk-based backup, however, can allow you to restore systems and data in as little as 15 minutes. This is because disk-based storage is a much faster method for restoring systems and data. It is also far more durable than tape, far easier to manage and far more reliable. What good is a backup if you cannot restore the data on it?

One way to get the benefit of disk-based backup while meeting data retention policies which may require a tape archiving system is to add disaster recovery software. Disaster recovery software can be a bridge between the two and enable you to have access to your business-critical information on a moment’s notice without having the hassle of dealing with your tape archive.

StorageCraft ShadowProtect is disaster recovery software that allows you to have Real-Time Recovery of your systems and data in the event of a catastrophic failure.
