Re: Exchange Backup to disk backup/restore issues?

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Disk to Disk (or NAS, etc) backups should be faster (for both backups and
restores) than backing up to tape. It is also a great way of providing an
extra layer of protection. The first backup goes to disk, then that backup
file gets backed up to tape. The tapes can be stored offsite and long-term,
while the disk backups gets stored for a much shorter time (say 1 week).

Does anyone know of any issues with regards to utilising NAS based
Backup-To-Disk folders for a single server based Exchange 2003 backups and
restores ?

We are planning to move our current tape auto-loader to another part of
our
company, and are planning on backing up our server based Exchange Server
to a
NAS device currently on the network.

Thanx Susie
