Hello Everyone.
We have a small LAN that consists of about 35 users, a few servers for various applications / webservices / etc. We are in the market for a storage device that we want to use to basically backup all of the local user's profile data. Roaming profiles are not in use at this time and we are just using a workgroup configuration for shared resources ( no domain contoller, etc. )
Is a NAS device a good option for this? Im thinking in terms of a centralized unit, that we can have UPS power and Tape backup for a bit more redundancy than what would be achieved on each desktop.
The Dell Powervault 745N comes to mind as something in our price / necessity range. Any other suggestions? or are we going about this solution all wrong!
Thanks!
