That’s why we've been using Data Domain for over 2 years and couldn't be
happier with the product.
I have to confess to not knowing a huge amount about Quantum but reading some
of the earlier replies, I wonder why anyone would replace tape with a disk
based storage unit, only to configure that DSU to act just like a bunch of tape
drives. The NFS / CIFS options from DD work very well for our mixed environment
(Solaris and Windows) backing up Exchange, Oracle, SQL etc...
Anyways.. perhaps my stock comment wasn't too helpful but I can say that we
haven't regretted our data domain purchase once in over 2 years.

that the Quantum can do either inline or post, and the DD is pure

prior night's data), so PostProcessing isn't a game-changer.
