Need Tape, Doc?
Let's face it, all of you healthcare providers out there who haven't yet invested in competent SANS are still being forced to go to tape for your backup requirements --especially thanks to HIPAA which requires that you save even a patient's bathroom tissue forever. (All right, maybe that one's covered under Sarbanes-Oxley...) The chief complaint to date has been, "I need more tape capacity!!!"
Well, take the thermometer out of your ear and let your blood pressure settle down --you have it. STORServer just announced its K5000 SAIT (Sony Advanced Intelligent Tape) system tape array that will safely stash up to 28.5TB (that's terror bytes for those of you responsible for handling backup chores) when in maxed capacity. And it works on 120VAC!!
(Pssst: The K5000 is a backup appliance. STORServer is not like your average P.C. Richards.)
