Removable Disk in the Digital Archive: A Cost/Benefit Analysis

By John Webster, Illuminata

Illuminata White Paper The need for archival storage has been made particularly acute by regulatory compliance and litigation protection requirements. Disk arrays, even those using inexpensive SATA disks, are a relatively expensive proposition for archival storage. Tape is the obvious alternative to disk for archival storage, but it has its own limitations including frequent refresh cycles and is an impractical media to support litigation e-discovery. This paper examines the impact of removable disk on archiving.
