Ionic Battery is a company that has developed new longer-lasting batteries for hybrid vehicles. The company uses nine Windows Server 2008 R2 servers and company users connect to the servers over a TCP/IP-based network. There are 27 Windows 7 users in the Business Department, five Mac OS X Snow Leopard users in the Marketing Department, and 18 Linux users in the Research and Development Department.

The Computer Systems group supports all computing resources for the company and is under the Business Department. This group uses three Windows 7 desktop computers and two Linux computers. It consists of two server administrators and three user support personnel.

Archiving Financial Data

The Business Department had been audited and the auditors believe the company needs to establish a way to archive accounting data on a year-end basis. In this way, the data will be archived so that if the board of directors, the auditors, or the Internal Revenue Service have questions about accounting information for any prior year, the data can be retrieved from an archive and examined. What storage medium do you recommend using for archiving this data so that it can be safely preserved for up to 10 or 15 years as specified by the auditors? Consider using the Internet to further research your recommendation.
