Can Open-e replace the Adaptec NAS 520 server for less $$$?
Yes! The NAS-R3 Enterprise is less then the 520 and can provide the Data Replication to another NAS-R3 Enterprise as a Secondary backup.
Although from the Scope of Work specification calling for iSCSI data transfer, DSS would be a better fit for this project and you will be able to offer Volume Replication for the iSCSI Targets.
Can Open-e utilize a tape backup and another source of recover?
NAS-R3 Enterprise and DSS have Backup functions built to back up to Tape (direct attached), RAID's or Dynamic Disks (USB Drives) to provide scheduled tasks with Full, Incremental and Differential backup procedures. Please see link below for all the Tape hardware product compatibilities that we support.
Data Replication to another NAS-R3 Enterprise or DSS can provide another source for recovery.
I would recommend downloading our Demo-CD version of DSS (link below) to have a better understanding on how we stand against the Adaptec NAS 520 server. Funny how I was not able to download or get a 30 day evaluation of the Adaptec NAS 520.
When downloading our product it is a 30 day trial version. Can Adaptec provide this so that you can compare?? I would ask and in the mean time download our Demo-CD.
Also could you present all sales opportunities to info@open-e.com as I would like to keep the forum for technical assistance to our customers and users.
