ExaGrid EX5000 - NAS server - 16 TB

The ExaGrid system is based on standard appliances that are shipped along with ExaGrid's unique software to deliver a complete turnkey solution for disk-based backup with data deduplication. The ExaGrid appliance is rack-mountable and uses standard components, including Intel quad-core Xeon processors, enterprise SATA drives, and Gigabit Ethernet connection(s).

ExaGrid works seamlessly with all popular backup applications. With ExaGrid, backup jobs are sent directly from the backup application to the ExaGrid appliance for onsite disk-based backup. The backup application can create copies from the ExaGrid system directly to your existing tape library for offsite storage, or you can choose to deploy a second-site ExaGrid system at an alternate location to reduce or replace off-site tape.

With ExaGrid, you can preserve your existing investment and keep your current backup application and processes. Using ExaGrid is as simple as pointing your existing backup jobs at a NAS share on the ExaGrid appliance. The system scales as required by adding ExaGrid appliances, which virtualize into the GRID architecture automatically, adding capacity and processing power while acting and being managed as one unified system.
