Re: XSAN over 100 TB

I would never use the Cache-A LTO box for a true backup to a live massive XSAN, however I would use it for an "on-the-fly" backup to my tapeless workflow, or at least that is how I see it being used. If I was shooting a bunch of P2 cards, I could use the Cache-A box to have a tape backup of all my P2 cards as they are loaded into the system. There are a ton of mirror based ingest systems that use a Cache-A style backup for ingest data. Meaning... it is ingesting to a set of mirrored drives, checksum'd the data, then dumped to LTO simultaneous to the massive XSAN.

or something like that...
