We currently use Microsoft DPM onto disk for our onsite backups, and also have a cloud based backup solution in place. We are looking at buying a tape drive to integrate with DPM in order to give us true cold backups.

 

I'm looking for recommendations of tape drives that will work with DPM, and that are also reasonably inexpensive. I'm looking at the RDX drives, but don't know about their compatibility with DPM.

 

Can anyone shed any light / suggestions on this?

The last time I looked at looked at RDX drives for use with DPM it said they were not directly compatible with DPM and you have to purchase some additional software (a virtual tape library) that costed around £1,500 at the time.

 

We went for a LTO Tape Library instead (we got a refurbished one with a 3yr NBD warranty on it).
