IBM to target small firms market
The IBM Tivoli Continuous Data Protection for Files software will copy data within seconds of it being entered or changed on a PC or a more powerful server computer, IBM said.
Growth market
Many rival crash recovery products only back up information several times a day.
According to Reuters, the software will be announced on Friday and go on sale on September 16, costing $35 (£19.41) per laptop or desktop PC and $995 per server processor - servers often have two to four processors.
"The enterprise market is not seeing the high growth rate that we are seeing in the small and medium-sized market," said Dianne Macadam, an industry analyst at US-based DataMobility Group.
"Small and medium-sized businesses are contending with a 'data avalanche', vulnerable to computer viruses or crashes," Ron Riffe, IBM's director of storage software strategy said.
In July, IBM reported a 6.6% gain in second-quarter profits - topping market estimates - but sales dipped 4% to $22.30bn after it sold its personal computer division to China's Lenovo.
