NetVault®: SmartDisk takes disk-based backup and data deduplication to new levels, enabling disk savings of up to 92%. And, because it’s been built on BakBone’s new Open Data Protection Platform, SmartDisk also helps to reduce capital expenditure as it is hardware agnostic, allowing organisations to utilise their existing storage infrastructure.
In addition, NetVault: SmartDisk is easily scalable, enabling you to simply add more capacity without having to discard existing deployments, thereby protecting your existing investment.
