Palo Alto, Calif. - January 13, 2004 - Data Domain, a leader in enterprise data protection solutions, today announced that its DD200 Restorer has been named Storage magazine/SearchStorage.com’s Product of the Year in the Backup Hardware category. The award is showcased in this month’s issue of the publication and on its website.

The Product of the Year awards, selected by the editors of Storage magazine and SearchStorage.com, honor the best storage products for enterprise IT professionals based on innovation, performance, ease-of-integration, ease-of-use and manageability, functionality, and value. The DD200 took highest honors in its category with a gold-level designation.

The DD200 Restorer is the industry’s first disk-based recovery solution that enables users to fully recover data at speeds typically reserved for high-end storage devices at a cost similar to tape automation. The appliance uses patent-pending global compression technology to store up to 23 TB of data on disk and is designed for companies that need to recover their mission-critical information within minutes, not hours.

Customers are using the DD200 Restorer to manage the rapid recovery of their most important information on site, a benefit that enables them to keep their most important data on site for a longer period of time (months versus days.)
