External USB rotated drive questions

Post by driley »

Hello,
We are researching using USB rotated drives as an extra layer of protection and I have a few questions.
We would probably need 20 TBs in each of the 2 rotated enclosures.
1. Anybody have a favorite vendor of these types of units?
2. Have you used them as ReFS formatted drives?
3 I'm thinking of using these for Backup Copy jobs, can they run along with regular Backup Copy jobs to a "non-rotated" filesystem, or do they need to be scheduled differently?
Thanks in advance!
D.

2. You can do that, but you won't make any use of ReFS intergration.
3. No need to schedule it differently.

Thanks!
