PROTECTION WHEN YOU NEED IT MOST
Persistent Storage Manager (PSM) Products deliver Live Primary Data Protection for servers or appliances running Windows NT 4.0, 2000, XP or Windows 2003 by creating hundreds of point-in-time Persistent True Images or snapshots of the data volume. PSM snapshots look just like the volume at the time of creation and are kept on the active volume to facilitate the immediate return of individual files, groups of files, folders or complete volumes.

The value of data is inversely proportional to its age. The first 12 – 24 hours before the first overnight tape backup is preformed, PSM is the only choice to protect your work. PSM automatically creates dozens of point in time snapshots from which data can be retrieved without the assistance of network administration.

PSM has two management options available:
  1. PSM for the SAK or Storage Server 2003 is tightly integrated into the Server Appliance Kit. It is designed for OEMs developing NAS Appliance solutions.
