Good question, we looked at the Copan solution with our last RFP. For our environment it would not have panned out as our environment in one location's 28TB a night, which would essentially break the Maid Concept, (ie disk would all be spinning. ) To have Maid work in a large env, it would be safe to say you would need a few of them. It may be a great platform for longer term archives.

So far I have not seen anyone respond they are using this appliance but I'm specifically wondering if anyone is using or has anything they can specifically say about this unit. The question in no way should suggest we are thinking of using this, I'm just wondering if anyone has any knowledge they can pass on positive or negative. Was it part of a group of vendors you considered and chose something else? Thanks for your time.
