What are the RDX Cleaner Utilities?

RDX is a removable hard disk drive storage system, containing a docking station (RDX dock) and storage media (removable disk cartridge). RDX disk technology combines the strengths of hard disk drive and tape cartridge data storage, allowing you to back up data like a tape drive, with the instant access of a hard drive. It allows for shorter backup windows and quicker restorations. Indirectly, these utilities help to rotate the RDX media based on the backup schedule, in order to maximize the use of the RDX media.

• The RDX Cleaner utility is a tool that helps to purge or clear the current backup RDX media destination, if it does not contain the latest Full Backup. It relies upon a verification process which ensures no full backup exists before it clears the content.

• The RDX Force Cleaner utility is a similar tool that helps purge the current backup RDX media destination, but does not rely on any verification process before it forcefully clears the content. You should only use the RDX Force Cleaner utility when you need to clean all backup sessions at the destination. This utility will perform a complete cleanup of the destination without checking for any existing condition or criteria.
