Frequently Asked Questions
How does RDX differ from traditional tape backup?
RDX uses removable disk cartridges instead of tape. This means faster backup/restore speeds (disk-speed vs. sequential tape), no tape wear or stretching, and instant random access to any file without rewinding.
What is the capacity of the included cartridge?
This system includes a 1TB RDX cartridge. Higher capacity cartridges (2TB, 4TB, 5TB) are available separately for expanding your backup rotation.
How does the RDX connect to my system?
RDX docking stations typically connect via USB 3.0 or SATA. The drive appears as a standard removable disk to the operating system, compatible with any backup software.
Are RDX cartridges interchangeable between brands?
RDX is an open standard originally developed by Tandberg (now Overland). Cartridges from HP, Tandberg/Overland, and other manufacturers are cross-compatible with any RDX dock.
Is RDX good for offsite backup rotation?
Yes — that's one of its primary advantages. The rugged, portable cartridges are designed for offsite rotation. Take a cartridge offsite daily or weekly, cycling through a set for disaster recovery protection.
