While backing up data may be a minor chore for many, backing up vast quantities of data is a major operation. At the very top of the food chain, you generally have complex tape systems operated with automated robots. However, Dr. Koch Computertechnik AG has developed a cheaper, yet very flexible solution for the University of Tübingen: 70 TB backup capacity on standard IDE hard drives.
