Combining AccuGuard with Tandberg Data DPS2000 Series NAS (network-attached storage) and RDX QuikStor removable disk platforms provides back-up and recovery of business data, whether it is stored on laptops, workstations or servers.

Tandberg Data AccuGuard is a Windows-based back-up and recovery software designed specifically for small- to medium-sized businesses (SMBs).

It is an easy-to-deploy, “set-it-and-forget-it” solution that protects physical and virtual Windows servers. Automatic back-up plans ensure data is backed-up coherently from a specific point in time.

AccuGuard utilizes a data deduplication engine designed to increase users’ storage capacities by as much as 20 times. Back-up verification ensures that every file is saved correctly and without corruption and that stores are searchable down to the version level for quick file discovery.

Tandberg Data AccuGuard will be available in March 2010. It will ship together with the DPS2000 NAS Series and RDX QuikStor removable disk systems. RDX QuikStor with AccuGuard starts at $169 (drive only), with cartridge prices ranging from $126 for 80GB, to $413 for the 640GB. The DPS2000 NAS Series with AccuGuard starts at $2,290 for 4TB.
