The Spectra nTier700 Series Backup and Archive Appliance is designed specifically for backup and archival data—all data that is no longer in active use and is ready to be moved off primary disk.

The nTier700 Series consumes less power and occupies less space than disk appliances, letting you cost-effectively store data after it leaves the expensive primary disk. Plus, it provides an integrated, flexible, and powerful storage platform that you can manage with the proven, easy-to-use BlueScale interface.

The nTier700 Series offers:

• Scalability
  A single nTier700 Series scales from 10-120 TB of RAID 6 protection in just 4U of rack space.
  
  
• Flexibility
  Supported* backup and archive applications include replication, disk-to-tape backup, tiered storage services, backup software applications, snapshot, and Microsoft Data Protection Manager (DPM) for continuous data protection
  
  
• Availability and reliability
  Built-in redundancy is provided through an easily maintained, modular architecture with hot-swap parts and hot-disk replacement options.
  
  
• Established trustworthiness
  Spectra Logic has built on decades of experience in protecting data and on in-depth knowledge of backup and customers needs to create the nTier design. We understand data, data protection, and what keeps your data safe.
  
  
• Options for purpose-built functionality
  Use your nTier700 Series solely as a global deduplication appliance to dramatically reduce your storage consumption and efficiently replicate data from nTier's at remote locations.

Built for long-term use

Primary disk manufacturers assume a lifespan of about three years for their products, which are designed for highly transactional data, rather than for storage density and energy efficiency. Spectra nTier is engineered to last for an extended lifespan, giving you durability, optimal power efficiency and exceptional scalability. When your storage requirements increase, you incrementally add drives throughout the life of the product. Implement what you need today— and be ready to add whatever you will need in the future.
