Disk arrays improve I/O performance, but they aren't invulnerable to fragmentation. Read this white paper and discover the technical issues concerning fragmentation, SANs, NAS, and RAID

Replication doesn't have to take place at the array level. It can happen at the application, database, file system, operating system, or network levels as well, and the truth is that a "one-size-fits-all" may no longer make sense.

The combination of technologies like SATA disk drives, grid architectures, de-duplication, removable disk cartridges and asynchronous replication coupled with their faster speeds and higher reliability ratings are simply too much for tape to withstand any longer. Expect to say goodbye to tape as a backup's primary target yet in your career.

You'll run out of space... I have sometimes asked what some see as a daft question concerning storage: âWhen is someone going to come up with a solution that will completely stop storage growth rather than just slowing it down a little?â Usually, the response is a deafening silence. But I predict: one day your organisation WILL reduce its total storage.â¦
