Backup -- to disk instead of tape ?
What "backup to disk" APPLIANCE
vendors offer something like below
"Desired Steps" since I am trying
to get away from TAPE so I can easily
GROW into BIGGER hard drives if/when needed ?
Also, I assume you can reuse
backup TAPES more times then
you can reuse backup HARD DRIVES ?
-------------------------- ---------- ----
Current Steps
1. Norton Backup Exec software
Saturday NIGHT full backup (10TB) and
Weekday NIGHTLY differential backup (~1TB)
run on main Windows 2012 R2 server, backing up
three PHYSICAL servers, each with 2 HyperV VMs
2. every morning
** eject tapes
** insert new tapes
3. every night
** take tapes offsite
