We are – in possession – actually, we have been for the past eight weeks – of an HP RDX external drive and a couple of HP 2 GB RDX cartridges.
For those not in the know, RDX is HP’s hard disk-based backup and CDP solution.
It is ruggedized out of the box, and with data cartridges offering 2TB of raw storage space, it is poised to become the replacement for HP DATxx digital audio tape backup systems.
It is already the replacement for DAT backup solutions as far as HP is concerned.
We will be using this device as the primary backup solution for a forthcoming Proliant ML-series tower.
Stay tuned.
