Data Backup and Recovery Appliances: A First and Last Line of Defense Against Cyberattacks
Many organizations recognize the benefits of appliances that provide a turnkey, all-in-one solution. They’re ideal systems that remove the need to source discrete components of a whole solution by delivering a central interface for backup processes, tools, and infrastructure.
Arcserve 9000 Series Appliances go much further. Powered by award-winning Arcserve UDP software and Sophos Intercept X Advanced, they combine flash-accelerated deduplicated storage, robust server processing, and high-speed networking with proven threat prevention technologies, highly redundant hardware and cloud services for plug-and-play backup, security, DR, and application availability.
Go beyond reactive security approaches with cutting-edge endpoint protection with artificial intelligence. Safely spin up copies of physical and virtual systems directly on the appliance, or in private and public clouds. Unbox and employ a ransomware-free future in 15 minutes, flat.

RAM Expansion Kits
Arcserve Appliances include a significant amount of RAM to satisfy most disaster recovery and backup needs.
If you have critical servers with large amounts of RAM, you can expand the RAM capacity of the appliance to spin up virtual copies of these servers in the event of hardware failure or during other local disasters.
The table below outlines the possible configurations and resulting RAM sizes. Please note:
- Arcserve Appliance RAM can be expanded only with RAM expansion kits listed below.
- To maintain maximum performance, expanded DIMMs have the same capacities and models as the RAM installed in the base model originally.
- Appliance models 9012, 9024 and 9048 have 16 DIMM slots on the dual-socket motherboard, however as these models have only one CPU installed, a maximum of 10 DIMM slots can be populated.
- Expanding appliance RAM capacity is only possible via optional RAM expansion bundles supplied by Arcserve, and only in the compatible configurations listed below.
