| Need
for Data Protection |
Despite
technological advances in the reliability
of magnetic storage media, hard disk
failures still occur. According to
a study by CALCE Electronic Products
and Systems Center, University of
Maryland, 1% of hard drives fail annually
(http://www.calce.umd.edu/whats_new/2003/1203.pdf).
If you, your company or anyone you
know has suffered from a hard disk
crash, then you know how catastrophic
that event is. |
