We evaluated Sepaton, Quantum, SUN,
and DataDomain
We chose DataDomain. It has been
in service for 10 months now with no problems
Note: We are NOT using the VTL feature.

Sepaton presented themselves
to us as an alternative to Data Domain (data deduplication on hard drives).
When I read the info they sent me it seemed that I’d have to buy
at least as much storage as I already had because first copy isn’t compressed.
We didn’t have the floor space for that so didn’t pursue it.
Data Domain on the other hand compresses and dedupes so using much smaller
units than it seemed Sepaton was suggesting allowed us to do the compression
and deduplication.
You might also look at EMC’s
offerings for data deduplication. They’ve been pushing them but
we haven’t looked into them since we’d already gone the DD route.

Hello All,
Happy New Year.
Has anyone heard of, or worked with Sepaton?
If so, could you give me some highlights?
