InstantData - Redstor's unique, prioritised recovery feature - came to the rescue when a file server died at a school in the middle of preparing for GCSE and A-level exams. Under the school's previous contingency plans it would have taken up to three days to recover the 1TB of data and the 1,000 users back to work. However, staff and pupils at Howell's School in Cardiff were working as if nothing had happened by the time their second lesson of the day came around - thanks to Instant Data.
