Dell Sets Up Simplified Backup System
Dell is keeping its philosophy of simplifying storage devices for the SMB sector, after it launched the Dell PowerVault DL2000 , an all-in-one system that braces a server, a storage system, as well as backup and recovery software, as a single device.
The PC maker is bringing in some striking claims about the performance of DL2000, verifying that by blending both storage and the backup and recovery system in a single box, it can make out backup times by up to 52 percent and restore times by up to 77 percent compared to tape.
Basically, the DL2000 is a Windows-based x86 server. Users have the pick of employing software from either CommVault or Symantec that will be factory installed on the machine. It also boasts other instruments to help with the setup of the device, which Dell lays claim can be attained in less than half an hour.
