The Quantum DX30
is the optimal entry-level solution that addresses the most
significant backup challenges facing IT professionals: meeting
short backup windows, confidence that backups are complete,
and the ability to quickly restore data when needed. With Quantum's
patent-pending Optyon™ In-line Data Compression, the DX-Series
is the first and only open system disk-based virtual tape library
to offer hardware based compression! Optyon™ hardware
compression allows users to effectively double their usable
capacity with approximately 2:1 compression ratio* – without
decreasing the performance of the backup server or the DX30
processor!
- High availability features such as RAID 5 and redundant,
hot-swappable components
- Up to 1TB/hr to meet short backup windows and provide
quick restores
- Restore files 5 to 10 times faster than a conventional
tape library
- Up to 41.6TB usable capacity in 10.4TB increments
- Supported by every major backup software vendor
The DX30 enhances an existing tape backup system by separating
the backup target from the backup archive. After installing
a DX30, backup jobs are sent directly to the DX30 (the backup
target) with throughput up to 1TB/hr. |

With the Quantum
DX30 system, high availability features such as RAID 5 and redundant,
hot-swappable components are combined with blazing disk performance,
which allows for more frequent and reliable backup and restore
operations. By emulating a tape library, the DX30 seamlessly
integrates into existing backup architectures without any changes
to existing processes. Since it emulates a tape library, the
DX30 is not susceptible to fragmentation, file or operating
system overhead, tuning, hackers, or volume management complexities.
The DX30 truly complements existing tape libraries (the backup
archive) by allowing them to focus on archive operations for
disaster recovery and regulatory compliance.
As a pioneer in open systems virtual tape, Quantum Corporation
introduced the DX30 disk-based virtual tape library system
over four years ago. Quantum is now the first open systems
vendor to offer hardware-based data compression via our patent-pending
Optyon In-line Data Compression card. It enables DX30 users
to double their usable capacity with approximately 2:1 compression.
By offloading data compression to a dedicated hardware adapter
card, the backup server and DX30 processor are not impacted.
Competitor's disk-based systems only offer software compression
(if any at all), which can decrease aggregate performance
by 50% or more.
