Hello,

My company is evaluating doing backup to disk. We are
using NBU as our backup application. Has anyone here
implemented Backup to Disk? We are looking at Data
Domain's product, www.datadomain.com. I talked with
them at Vision and they seem to have some good
customer references, Documentum, WebEx, Borland, to
name a few. Have any of you talked to them or tested
their product? Benefits we see are:

1) Use our existing backup sw, NBU.
2) 20x or greater compression
3) Backup throughput of 50mb/s
4) Data verification, meaning we won't get corrupt
data like we do today when we try to restore from tape
(we all know that his happens sometimes)
5) Ability to have quick restores since I can have a
2-6 month retention of data on their platform.

I would love to hear some feedback and thoughts.

thanks
Cameron
