When should I choose the mid-range M-50 over the compact M-30?

The M-50 at 48 litres suits IT teams with growing backup volumes, multiple backup strategies (disks and tapes), or departments needing better organisation across separate shelf and drawer compartments.

How do the internal shelf and drawer improve backup media management?

The single shelf and one drawer allow IT teams to separate backup types (tape cartridges on the shelf, external drives in the drawer) and maintain clear inventory of critical assets for fast disaster recovery retrieval.

Is 48 litres sufficient for departmental backup storage?

Yes, mid-sized departments can consolidate daily backups, weekly archive tapes, and redundant drives in the M-50 without requiring multiple safes, simplifying access control and inventory.

Does the slam-action door work on both shelf and drawer compartments?

The slam-action feature applies to the main safe door; the internal shelf and drawer operate independently. This design balances security with convenient multi-tier storage organisation.

Can the M-50 be positioned in a regular office server cabinet or IT closet?

The M-50's mid-range size and weight permit placement in many server rooms and IT closets. Confirm dimensions and floor-load capacity with Procure.ae to ensure your space can accommodate it.

What is the practical backup media capacity of the M-50?

The 48-litre volume typically holds several external drives, a dozen or more tape cartridges, and USB backup media, suitable for departmental data protection in medium-sized organisations.

How soon can the M-50 be delivered to our office in the UAE or GCC?

Lead times vary based on stock and location. Contact Procure.ae to request availability and expected delivery for the DataGuard NT M-50 in your region.

Do you offer setup assistance for data media safes?

Procure.ae can discuss placement, positioning, and any setup requirements during your quotation. Confirm what support is available for your specific facility setup.

What is the fire protection rating for the M-50?

The M-50 carries RISE certification to NT Fire 017-120 DIS for two hours of data media fire protection, ensuring backup media remains below critical temperature thresholds during extended fire events.

What internal configuration comes with the M-50?

The safe includes one internal shelf and one drawer, providing flexible compartmentalisation for organising different backup media types and schedules.

Is the M-50 also protected against burglary?

Yes, the DataGuard NT M-50 combines certified data media fire protection with burglary resistance, protecting backup media from both fire and theft in a single integrated solution.

FAQ

What is the practical difference between the M-50 and the M-30?
The M-50 adds 18 L of extra capacity and introduces a dedicated internal drawer alongside the shelf, allowing better segregation of media types — for example, separating USB drives from backup tapes or optical discs.

Is the DataGuard NT M-50 suitable for compliance with data protection regulations?
The RISE NT Fire 017-120 DIS certification provides documented protection that can support compliance with data retention and business continuity policies. Confirm specific regulatory requirements with your compliance team.

Does the key lock version offer the same fire protection as the digital lock version?
Yes, fire protection performance is identical across both lock configurations within the DataGuard NT range. The choice between lock types is purely an access-control preference.
