RDX Media
Rugged, Reliable, Removable

The Overland-Tandberg RDX® technology is a disk-based removable media storage system which offers random access performance and high transfer rate like disk along with the archive life, removability, portability and cost benefits of tape. RDX is the best of disk and tape combined and consists of a drive and removable disk media.

High reliability and easy handling

The Overland-Tandberg RDX media offers a rugged design for maximum data protection and secure handling. The media is well suited for data protection and archiving. It has an electrostatic proof design and is drop protected. New media types have to pass RDX quality tests before they are introduced to the market. This ensures high quality, reliability and durability. The media is keyed, so it is not possible to insert it into the drive in a wrong direction. A write protection switch prevents from deleting or overwriting data.

HDD and SSD versions

The RDX Media is offered in different versions to satisfy various business needs. The HDD-based media is suitable for most backup, archiving and storage tasks. It is available with capacities from 500GB up to 5TB. The SSD-based version fulfills high performance requests and is ideal for data storage and data exchange of big datasets. Its high transfer rate of 330MB/s ensures fast write and read operations. SSD media is ideal for very rough environments, humidity and vibration.

WORM for compliance archiving

RDX WORM media meets an expanded set of regulatory compliance requirements and is ideal for use with a large number of archiving applications, like enterprise content management and document management systems, where data must not be deleted or overwritten. WORM is a software based solution and is available for HDD media up to 4TB.

Protection against Malware Attacks

The RDX RansomBlock feature secures backups on RDX media against virus and ransomware attacks and ensures full recovery in case of infected data and blocked computer systems. The RansomBlock functionality sets all data on the RDX WORM media into a read-only mode. In addition, it allows write operations to RDX media for granted applications and processes.

RDX TENCASE

RDX TENCASE is the ideal solution for transportation and longterm safe-keeping of up to 10 RDX media. RDX TENCASE is a rugged case, which withstands drops, dust and harsh environments. It is water-resistant and can be secured with two padlocks for theftprotection of critical data.

HDD-based RDX Media
Backup, Restore and long term Archiving

The HDD-based media is ideal for backup, restore and long term archiving tasks. It is an affordable solution for SOHOs and smaller SMBs. With capacities from 500GB, 1TB, 2TB, 3TB, 4TB to 5TB, the HDD-based RDX media fits perfect in every individual environment.

Backup and Recovery

If RDX is used as a backup and recovery device, as a rule of thumb, the capacity of RDX media chosen should be at least double the size of the capacity of data to be backed up. This includes the assumption of implementing an incremental backup strategy or using deduplication. RDX is supported by all major backup software vendors.

Long Term Archiving

A 10 years archival life and unlimited compatibility of drive- and media-generations are the best prerequisite for long term archiving of your data, like customer records, financial files or business documents, but also videos, photos or music.

Data Moving

The HDD-based RDX media is also best for storing, sharing and moving all business data. The rugged cartridge design makes it easy to distribute data by regular post or courier services from one office to the other.
