Why use a dedicated hardware to hold the on-site backup?
Technology :: Vaulted Backup
The on-site backup is your first port of call when restoring data, because the data is on your LAN files can be restored very quickly
It's not uncommon for people to store the on-site backup on the same server the backup was taken from; this protects against users accidentally deleting files, but becomes useless in the event of a hardware failure.
We use dedicated hardware to hold your on-site backups, if any of your servers fail, all your data + the version history is safe on the backup appliance. The backup appliance.s disks are protected by RAID, so even if one of the disks in the appliance fails, your data will still be available to you.
Normally we supply and maintain the hardware, however as an option you can supply your own hardware . for example, you may already have suitable hardware, or you may already have agreements in place with a vendor to supply and maintain hardware.
