We're using Dell MD-1000 drive arrays for our disk backups. SAS connected, no issues with performance.
>>> Bob Hartung <bhart...@wiscoind.com> 04/19/11 8:03 AM >>> I have a remote location with a single Dell 2900 (Win2K3) server. In addition to being the solitary file server, it also runs Arcserve Disk-to-Disk-Tape to back up itself as well as a windows phone server, a couple of PCs dedicated to special functions and 14 PCs. Room for the Disk-to-Disk-Tape is getting slim so I'm looking for external storage to store the Disk-to-Disk stuff as well as Acronis workstation image files. I'm interested in the Qnap TS-559 Pro II Turbo NAS. It has every connection option (including USB 3.0). I initially plan to connect it to the Dell 2900's 2nd gigabit ethernet port but I'd have both eSATA and USB 3.0 as options if more performance is necessary. Anyone using this unit or similar? I'd be grateful for feedback. Thanks. ---------------------- Bob Hartung Wisco Industries, Inc. 736 Janesville St. Oregon, WI 53575 Tel: (608) 835-3106 x215 Fax: (608) 835-7399 e-mail: bhartung(at)wiscoind.com ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
