Overland Storage REO 4500: Disk-Based Backup

For over 25 years, Overland Storage® has delivered industry leading data protection solutions hat optimize backup, recovery, and archive operations. Our award winning designs and patented technologies combined with superior reliability and performance enable IT managers worldwide to successfully protect their valuable data.

Exponential data growth, shrinking backup windows, unreliable backups and the need for fast data recovery combined with new government regulations make data protection a challenge for any IT professional. The Overland REO 4500 Disk-Based Backup and Recovery Appliances solve these challenges by providing fast, reliable data backup and recovery while reducing operating costs. Easily configured as a virtual tape library, standalone virtual tape drives, and/or disk volumes (LUNs), the REO can be easily deployed and modified to adapt to changing data protection requirements.

Unlike tape solutions and other disk-based backup systems, only the REO SERIES® includes REO Protection OS™ software, which embeds data protection intelligence and enables future software enhancements via software PACs. It also provides a core set of volume and device virtualization, management, and connectivity features found only in REO SERIES appliances. When configured as virtual tape, backup data is written sequentially and in large blocks, which results in greater backup performance. In addition, REO SERIES virtual tape appliances are not susceptible to disk fragmentation, viruses, manual volume management, hackers, ongoing tuning, or file system overhead - all are common problems found with general purpose disk-based backup systems.
