Quantum Disk Based Backup
Quantum Tape Libraries
 Sunstar
Company, Inc. is proud to be a Quantum partner!
DX30
| 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 16TB total raw capacity in 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 two 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.

Through Quantum StorageCare™ Service, a one-year on-site warranty: 5x9 next
day response comes standard with each DX30. A variety of hardware support
plans are available with up to 7x24x4 support in many countries around the
globe. Quantum also offers standard and custom integration packages for all
Quantum enterprise-class products in most environments and configurations.
 The
DX30 is supported by StorageCare Guardian, Quantum's new proactive remote
monitoring solution. Leveraging the intelligence inside the DX30, Guardian
enables Quantum to proactively monitor the health of the library over the
Internet and use intelligent diagnostics data to remotely service the
equipment when something is wrong. Designed to deliver highly reliable
backups and rapid resolution time, Guardian is offered at no extra cost for
products under warranty or service contract. Guardian is easy to install and
can be downloaded online.
