Archive copy storage capacity
Compare total storage required for independent full copies with available media.
How it is calculated
Each copy = primary GB × (1 + growth fraction). Devices per copy = round up(copy GB ÷ usable device GB). Total devices = devices per copy × copy count.
Assumptions & limits
Each full copy uses separate devices and an archive may span devices. Physical separation, regular verification, supported formats and recovery tests remain necessary. Defaults are illustrative planning inputs, not recommended minimums or a guarantee of safety.
