CD Servers Vs CD Jukeboxes

CD Servers CD Jukeboxes

CD servers are today's most popular CD-based storage and archival systems. With CD servers CD-ROM drives are arranged in towers or racks where each drives holds only one CD. CD servers are the independent device on the network and have their own processing capabilities.

Towers provide real time read access to a number of disks by keeping them constantly loaded and ready to go, because the CD is dedicated to the CD-ROM drive. CD-servers are available from a seven drive tower model to drive cabinet. These systems offer a powerful solution for online data management and can be easily linked to other towers or to other storage media such as CD Jukeboxes.

CD Jukeboxes on the other hand, provide a near on-line solution in which the time between user's requests and data delivery is as little as seven seconds. Jukeboxes utilize both CD-ROM and CD-R media and can provide simultaneous reading, writing, storing and high speed access to 60-150 CDs. CD Jukeboxes are fully scaleable and can be configured to provide automated CD production and /or high speed data access. Some of the newer jukeboxes are built for application specific access in which the user selects the configuration best suited for their applications—from a very high capacity system with 88 GB of storage capacity to a high access system with a 12:1disc to drive ratio.
