Arctor uses the most economical, reliable, and efficient backup media – hard disks. With hard disk backup, Arctor can quickly and easily restore your files in the event of accidental loss or hardware failures.

There are many benefits to using a hard disk as backup medium for your files:

• Today’s cheapest and fastest backup media are hard disks
• Hard disks offer outstanding storage capacity at a low price
• Different backup versions of your files are readily available online
• Fault-tolerant storage, using RAID disk arrays, can make your backup immune to degradation and data loss
• Even if the drive electronics or the head assembly break or fail, the data on the disks is known to survive extreme shock and even fire. In most cases, hard drives can be repaired (by professional services) and the data retrieved.

Large enterprises have used automated backup solutions based on tape libraries or the more modern "D2D backup" for years. With Arctor also small and medium sized companies can set up a reliable backup solution with fast restore capabilities at a fraction of the costs.
