A lot of people are under the impression that tapes are old technology.
The truth of the matter is tape is still one of the only real reliable
ways to backup large amounts of data. I would feel much safer with a
disk to tape backup solution over just trusting disks.

we might make that recommendation but client has stated they would like
to stay away from tape for some reason. It is still early in the
discussions so I am limited as to understanding why they feel this
way...

If you're willing to spend up to 5K why not go LTO?

You could look at the Sonicwall CDP range. It has some gaping flaws IMO,
but might suit.
Otherwise www.peersyncsoftware.com <http://www.peersyncsoftware.com/>
their product is fine for backup - synch less so.
Finally avail, which is similar to persync.

Hello,
Anybody know of any good disk-based backup systems for a small company
(5 Windows Servers) Ideally I would like to keep it under $5k.
Thanks!
