Have a server with us? why go to the effort of running your own resilient raid array?
Storage Services
Located in our Manchester racks at the heart of our network is a raid-71 array constructed from two raid 7 units mirrored and located in seperate racks on seperate floors of the datacentre.
Your server can access the storage by:
- FTP
- SCP
- NFS
- iSCSI
Should you ever need more storage then your slice of the array can simply be grown within minutes of request.

Backup Services
At the heart of our Manchester network we host large tape carousels.
We primarily use Bacula to backup clients. There is a version available for the majority of operating systems. You have the option of specifically backing up part or all of your hard drive(s).
We can also accomodate alternative arrangments for backup, IE your server could FTP to our storage service then that can be backed up to tape.
