      Vendor Pushes Disk Backup Over Tape

      At the RBC Capital Markets SAN Conference last week, another storage vendor made the scene with its own approach toward using disk as a replacement for tape backup.

With the collapse of the tech bubble in 2000, storage companies fell out of favor, and their stock prices plummeted. Lately, there have been some glimmers of life. John M. A.
