tape as an archival medium
Hi all,
I used tapes aplenty back in the 1990's. They were a relatively cheap way to save your data; obviously, slow if you had to access it. And after 2-3 years they would usually go flaky (I am talking 4mm and 8mm tapes). Now I am wondering if anybody has had any recent experience with them and what they impression is. We are potentially looking to archive up to 20 TB of data (for now). Any reports of experience, both positive and negative, would be greatly appreciated. Boris. |
