Backup Drive
Can anybody recommend a backup drive for a HP ML310 running backup exec. They are not backing up more than 200GB.
They need to backup exchange and windows etc.

Get yourself a USB dock, something like the one below:

Then you can buy several standard HD's you can swap in for your backups.

Just get 3 USB 500Gb External drives.
Then Rotate them
1 Connected
1 offsite
1 in transit
TBH - you could go for 1Tb drives, they are cheap and will give you some future proofing

I don't believe that server has USB 3.0.
I may be mistaken.

If it doesn't, you can always add a USB 3 card...

Glad to help
You check with "Sony DDS SDT-7000/N DAT Tape Drive" or " 8TB TeraStation Pro Rackmount WSS Windows Powered Network Storage Server from Buffalo " for backing up exchange and windows.
