Server hardware failure is an unfortunate reality that needs to be accounted for. With hard drives, it's not a question of "If" so much as "When" a hard drive will fail. Reliability continues to be improved by the major hard drive manufacturers but the reality is: a hard drive is a mechanism, all mechanisms fail eventually. ioSafe provides a simple and efficient way of backing up primary server data against server failure with the added benefit of disaster protection.

The ioSafe product line helps protect against malicious viruses by providing a redundant storage location for your primary hard drive. ioSafe highly recommends that you install any major brand of virus protection software (Norton, McAfee, etc.) as your first line of virus protection. If a virus does compromise your primary data, the ioSafe provides an onsite disk based copy for simple and fast restore. This means no digging through tapes or trickling data back from an online storage location.

If your primary server fails, simply restore the backup from an ioSafe unit per the software manufacturer's recommendations. This technique can reduce downtime to minutes rather than days or weeks.

There are many different choices of backup software that are compatible with ioSafe products. Virtually any software that supports disk based backup will work. Contact ioSafe directly to learn more how our unique product line can help protect your data.
