Hi Depending on the type of FAStT subsystem your customer is using, you have the possibility to connect separate SATA-based FASTt100 cabinets containing 250GB SATA disks.
This would be benificiary for your customer, as he would be able to administer the disks as he does with his existing FAStT subsystem today.

This is now 3TB and can grown up to 7TB. Incremental backup is appr 300GB/night. But I have some questions? - What kind of disks should I use? (the customer has a FastT from IBM with fiber disks, but he wants a cheaper solution) - What kind of raid level as protection? Raid5, JBOD, Raild 0+1, ... ?? - Should I use a DISK type or FILE type storage pool? Thx. Stef
