In a study conducted by the University of California Santa Cruz, it was determined that 90% of data stored on disk was never accessed
again and that another 6.5% of the data was only accessed once. Because disk is an expensive place to store massive amounts of
infrequently accessed data, best practices recommend archiving data off to tape, usually within a 30 day period after the data has been
created. Moving the data to a NEO S-Series library reduces backup storage requirements, reduces costs, improves use of valuable oor
space, improves energy efciency, provides a higher level of data security and improves performance of networks and disk-based backup
systems. NEO S-Series tape libraries provide the capacities, features and efciencies needed for archived data.
Simple
Managing backups and archives can be a complex and costly activity.
That’s why NEOs is focused on providing a simple solution that reduces
your administrative costs for backup and archive. Web-based remote
management provides easy and convenient administration of the data
archive process from anywhere in the world. Removable cartridge
magazines enable easy access to data, reduce media handling costs
and facilitate ofine storage of your data for disaster recovery purposes.
Standard barcode readers reduce media inventory times and simplify
media management. Mail slots deliver easy, secure access to individual
tape cartridges without interrupting library operations. NEOs tape drives
are easily added, removed or replaced, providing the exibility to adapt
to changing data storage requirements. Combine the NEOs ease-of-use
features with its effortless conguration and installation and you will be
