Sun-StorageTek VTL Plus

It's a good bet your shrinking backup window is a growing problem. Too much data, increasing every day, slow one-tape-at-a-time transfers, and backup failure delays. The restore side could use some acceleration too. The Sun StorageTek Virtual Tape Library Plus (VTL Plus) is the immediate-relief solution.
