| "...In terms of speed and
convenience, the REV beats tape hands down...All
in all, the Iomega REV keeps its promise. It is a much better option
than tape drives for a small business or home office and an attractive
alternative to a standard hard drive unit for those who need the
flexibility of a removable cartridge-based system." Financial
Times
"...It's certainly a lot faster than most tape backup
devices, especially when you try to access a
specific file. It's also way faster than CD-RW
or the best DVD burners on the market. If you
compare it to other devices where you can eject
the media and take it with you, it's fantastic."
Extreme Tech
"...REV's performance competes very favourably with external
USB 2 hard disks, and it's much faster than any DVD writer or tape
backup device, particularly with large files...you'll be able to
keep using the cartridges for much longer, making it a cheaper
option in the long run. The drag-and-drop ease of a removable hard
disk has always been an attractive features, and now the REV makes
it faster, offers larger capacity, and delivers much better media
dependability." PC Pro "...REV is ideal as a tape replacement for disaster recovery.
It can also be used as a high capacity portable
storage device for transferring large amounts of data between
PCs...[REV] uses removable hard disks for unlimited
capacity; it is fast - seven times faster than
tape; it offers random access, so retrieval of files is
easy; it is durable and won't fade like tape;
and it is reliable." BusinessInfo
"Iomega's REV drive is a compelling alternative for customers
who have traditionally used tape for backup and data protection
on their entry level servers as well as high-end desktops. REV's
performance, easy-of-use and attractive price make it a good fit
for small businesses that value high-capacity removable storage." Research
Manager, IDC
"The REV isn't short of technical goodies...if
you are a developer, you can kiss the pain of hashed
boot sectors from test operation systems
goodbye. There is serious potential (with REV)..." The Inquirer.com
"Easy to use and less than half the price of most competing
tape products, Iomega's REV drive outperforms more expensive tape
alternatives like DDS-4, DAT-72, VXA, AIT-1, and DLT VS80." Computer
Technology News
"Iomega has hit a home run with REV drive. With backup speeds
that can exceed one gigabyte per minute, Linux
users now have a clear alternative to tape for
protecting mid-size installations..." Microlite
"If you are using DDS backup tapes, then the REV drive offers
faster speed. It can be used for both backup
of small server or desktop data and archiving
of large files." Computerworld
"Iomega
plans to challenge tape backup with the REV drive, which can back up data as
much as three times faster than DDS tape, and offer millions of rewrites, as
opposed to tape's thousands..." Computer
