FS range for backups

Hello,

We have updated the range of backup servers. It replaces the old backup and SP Storage servers.
The servers are hosted at our new DC in Gravelines (GRA). They are 1Gbps connected, but bandwidth is not guaranteed in the same
way that we guarantee bandwidth on the SP/EG/MG/HG servers. This means that on the FS, 1Gbps is possible on the internal network
between DCs and from the external network but if everyone backs up at the same time, you won't get 1Gbps. On the SP/EG/MG/HG range, bandwidth is guaranteed, so even if everyone performs the same action as you at the same time, you will still be able to use 200M/500M/750M/1.5G/3.0G bandwidth.

Today we are offering 2 servers:
- FS-8T
It's powered by an Intel Core i3 and 8GB.
It comes with 2 4TB disks in SATA3.
So you can have 8TB or 4TB disk space depending on the type of SoftRAID
The disks are 7200tr/min

- FS-24T
It's powered by an Intel Core i5 and 16GB.
It comes with 6 4TB disks in SATA3.
So you can have 24TB, 20TB or 12TB
disk space depending on the type of SoftRAID
SoftRAID. The disks are 7200tr/min

There is 1 IPv4 and 1 IPv6, but no IP Fail-over. We route it on a new kind of routers that make plenty of bandwidth but have few specific functionalities. The servers will be delivered starting from the end of next week.
