Smart. Simple. Safe. A best-in-class solution.  
The Imation RDX Storage System is a direct response to a persistent market need. The concept of replacing tape  
backup with high-performance random access technology has existed since the advent of disk drives. Yet until  
now, nothing has been able to match tape backup in its removability, high capacity or affordability. Now the  
RDX Storage System combines the benefits of removable cartridge technology with the advantages of disk  
into one intelligent solution.  
Smart. The Imation RDX Storage System features a high-capacity mobile 2.5-inch hard drive in a shock-resistant  
mounting system. Each removable disk cartridge is tough enough to withstand a one-meter fall and still  
operate. Its portability allows you to organize your data however you choose; take it offsite for even greater  
data protection.  
Simple. There’s intelligence in this simplicity. You’ll be more inclined to save data because backups are so fast.  
Plus, you can restore data in seconds instead of hours. Drag-and-drop functionality makes file access easy.  
Because the Imation RDX Storage System works with most popular backup software, it’s easy to schedule  
monthly, weekly or daily backups.  
Safe. The more valuable your company data, the larger your storage requirements, and the more you need the  
Imation RDX Storage System.
