They have a world-wide perspective and are burdened by the new players in the competitive E-business world. Time is money and you are expected to perform efficiently 24x7x365. Fast data access is imperative and therefore the most important strategy is data security. Backup storage is the most vital process in a reliable disaster recovery strategy. In this way, the business-critical data would be available all the time and information disaster wont halt the business operations.
Imation is the industry-leading manufacturer of tapes, USB drives, optical media and hard drives. Technical excellence in backup media, comprehensive lineup of storage devices and proven reliability make Imation a quality decision. Good news for mid-sized and small companies is that an innovative RDX solution has been introduced by Imation. It is a compact disk format that behaves like a conventional tape storage system. Imation RDX system features attributes of tape (removability, off-site media storage, longer working life) and disk (random access, fast data streaming).
Thats why RDX format is trusted by value-conscious businesses and is a popular solution in small industry.
Imation offers compact and durable 2.5-inch RDX disks that have proved their excellent performance in harsh conditions. First generation disk was designed to hold 160 GB data. The capacity was enhanced and now available are 500GB, 640GB and 1.0 TB disk cartridges that are engineered to maximize the value of your constrained budgets.
Their durability has been verified through exhaustive tests. Imation disks were dropped from a height of one meter, and afterwards inserted in the dock station. The RDX disks seamlessly read and stored data, while maintaining superior performance level.
So the customers can preserve their sensitive business information and enjoy random data accessibility. So the massive corporate data will surely be made available to the stock holders and management in-time.
Imation is amongst the leading companies that have a wide range of small and midrange backup devices. Imation DDS tapes are widely used in this market segment. The scalable DDS roadmap enables seamless growth and enhancement in storage performance. 42818, 43347 and 11737 represent the Imation-branded DDS1, DDS 2 and DDS 3 tapes.
Now we go back to the RDX solution. Configuration is extremely flexible with SATA and USB dock station models. Connect the dock station internally or externally. So, the infrastructure complexity can be intelligently reduced and the stringent demands can be fulfilled. USB connectivity saves time, whereas the option of copy/pasting the data files has simplified the backup storage process. RDX dock stations keep pace with enterprise applications, and reliably stream data at a faster rate of 45Mbps.
This solution also safeguards the massive sensitive data files with the industry-proven encryption system. This 256 bit encryption algorithm delivers highest level of security. Long-term benefit of this solution is seamless compatibility with all other dock stations. The exceptional compatibility of RDX storage disks connects to other RDX platforms as well. This Imation RDX is the ultimate system for the changing business needs.
