- Backup Exec Desktop and Laptop Option
With the majority of business-critical information residing outside the data center or off corporate servers, protection for desktops and laptops is a must. The enhanced Desktop and Laptop Option delivers continuous data protection to desktops and laptops whether in the office or on the road. Not only improving data protection and efficiency, this option enables users to restore their own files and maintains synchronization between multiple desktops and laptops so the most up-to-date file versions are available on all of a user's computers. Because the Desktop and Laptop Option does not require a dedicated stand-alone server as competing products do, it easily integrates into existing IT infrastructure and policies, helping lower the total cost of ownership.
The new push-install functionality from within Backup Exec centralizes deployment. Backup Exec 2010 includes support for Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP 64-bit OS, as well as delta file transfer, reducing the total amount of data being backed up. With this release, this option is integrated with Backup Exec Retrieve (available with the Backup Exec Continuous Protection Server) for even greater simplified file recovery.

- Backup Exec SAN Shared Storage Option
This powerful LAN-free backup solution allows multiple distributed backup servers to centralize storage devices that are connected over a switched fabric or iSCSI SAN for greater performance, efficiency, and fault tolerance.
- SAN Shared Storage Option load balances job activity across shared devices from multiple Backup Exec servers. The increased performance, backup speeds, and centralized management of media help lower the total cost of ownership.
- The SAN Shared Storage Option is a groundbreaking solution in manageability and performance for large-scale, high-end storage environments.
- Virtual Tape Library Unlimited Drive Option
Backup Exec introduces a new VTL Unlimited Drive Option which provides simple, cost efficient pricing for VTL devices by providing unlimited Library Expansion Options per Backup Exec Media Server.
The new VTL option allows administrators to integrate a VTL storage environment as a unique device that shows only tape functions that are valid for VTLs (i.e. no retention). VTL media can also be modified to erase data that has reached its expiration data to reclaim storage space for more crucial data.
- Backup Exec File System Archive Option
The NEW Backup Exec File System Archive Option provides unified backup and archiving for file systems by uniquely archiving data from the backup copy rather than separately pulling data from the source. The archive option will provide administrators with the ability to reduce redundant data from the Files server source to free up storage space.

Included in this suite is one Backup Exec Media Server license and one Deduplication Option license which will support your entire media server environment.
- Includes one Backup Exec Media Server license and one Deduplication Option license which will support your entire media server environment.
- Backup Exec Advanced Disk-based Backup Option
Backup Exec Advanced Disk-based Backup Option enables faster backups and restores through advanced disk-based backup and recovery, including Synthetic and Off-Host backups to perform zero impact backups. Synthetic backups reduce backup windows and network bandwidth requirements and do not impact the original client. New true image restore functionality automatically restores data sets sequentially, simplifying restores. The Off-Host backup feature enables better backup performance and frees the remote computer by processing the backup operation of the remote computer on a Backup Exec media server instead of on the remote computer or host computer.
- Backup Exec Desktop and Laptop Option
With the majority of business-critical information residing outside the data center or off corporate servers, protection for desktops and laptops is a must. The enhanced Desktop and Laptop Option delivers continuous data protection to desktops and laptops whether in the office or on the road. Not only improving data protection and efficiency, this option enables users to restore their own files and maintains synchronization between multiple desktops and laptops so the most up-to-date file versions are available on all of a user's computers. Because the Desktop and Laptop Option does not require a dedicated stand-alone server as competing products do, it easily integrates into existing IT infrastructure and policies, helping lower the total cost of ownership.
The new push-install functionality from within Backup Exec centralizes deployment. Backup Exec 2010 includes support for Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP 64-bit OS, as well as delta file transfer, reducing the total amount of data being backed up. With this release, this option is integrated with Backup Exec Retrieve (available with the Backup Exec Continuous Protection Server) for even greater simplified file recovery.
- Backup Exec Library Expansion Option
The Backup Exec Library Expansion Option scales the media storage system by leveraging additional drives within multidrive tape or optical autoloader/library storage systems. This option's Advanced Device and Media Management (ADAMM) technology provides extensive configuration and management capabilities, including lights-out backup and restore operations and bar code reader and portal support for both SCSI and Fibre attached devices. Users can partition slots within a library to target backup jobs to a specific slot.
- Backup Exec NDMP Option
The enhanced Symantec Backup Exec 2010 NDMP Option supports the backup and restore of NDMP NetApp (Data ONTAP 7.0/8.0 or later) EMC Celerra (with DART 5.5/6.0 or later) and IBM N-Series storage configurations with tape devices attached and new protection for NDMP devices residing in remote locations including in a Storage Area Network (SAN) configurations for added flexibility. Backup Exec 2010 NDMP option also provides automated NDMP filer data duplication to tape, reducing backup management. Overall support for NDMP devices greatly expands the number of disk targets that can be selected for disk-based data protection.
- Backup Exec Open File Option for Remote NetWare Servers
Enhances file protection by helping to ensure that every file is protected even while in use (on NetWare 6.5 volumes). This option can handle open files at the volume level and is seamlessly integrated into Symantec Backup Exec software.
- Virtual Tape Library Unlimited Drive Option
Backup Exec introduces a new VTL Unlimited Drive Option which provides simple, cost efficient pricing for VTL devices by providing unlimited Library Expansion Options per Backup Exec Media Server.
The new VTL option allows administrators to integrate a VTL storage environment as a unique device that shows only tape functions that are valid for VTLs (i.e. no retention). VTL media can also be modified to erase data that has reached its expiration data to reclaim storage space for more crucial data.
- Backup Exec File System Archive Option
The NEW Backup Exec File System Archive Option provides unified backup and archiving for file systems by uniquely archiving data from the backup copy rather than separately pulling data from the source. The archive option will provide administrators with the ability to reduce redundant data from the Files server source to free up storage space. Users can easily retrieve individual archived documents and files using the Backup Exec Retrieve Google-like web UI and administrators can retrieve archived data through the Backup Exec console. Overall administrators will be able to easily index data and set retention periods to efficiently manage data lifecycles.
- Supports Windows 2000, Windows 2003, Windows 2008 and Windows 2008 R2
- Licensed per protected/archived server
- Requires an Agent for Windows Systems for each archived server
