San Media Server or SSO is only required when you wish to share physical drives with another server. If the drives are dedicated to a server, a straight-up media server license will do. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of WEAVER, Simon Sent:

If you have tape drives dedicated to the media server, you don't need SSO.If the Exchange box will only be backing itself up, you only need a SAN Media Server, which is a bit cheaper than a full Media Server. A basic DR implication is that you would need a similar tape drive at the recovery site
