Storage Purchase Considerations
When making purchasing decisions about
storage there are four key areas that must be
addressed: storage capacity, data protection,
data availability, and storage management.

In making storage purchase decisions, you need

Data availability. Interrupted access to data
can be very costly – even fatal – to companies
that depend on data availability at all times.
Repercussions can extend beyond the short-

measured against a goal of maximizing data
availability and minimizing downtime.
