But why invest in tape, compared to hard drives?

• Greater Reliability –  The error rate of tape technology is far superior to that of disk.
• Better Longevity – Tape technology enables companies to extend its storage capacities far beyond what the physics of disk technologies will allow.
• Scalability – High capacities allow companies to scale on demand and grow into – not out of – their data storage requirements.
• Compatibility – Backward read compatibility and compatible with ALL backup software applications (2 generations read / 1 generation write – LTO8 is the exception).

Still The Best Long Term Storage Medium

Further Advantages of LTO Tape Storage.

• High Capacity – with LTO8 you can store up to 32TB on a single cartridge (M8 22.5TB 1.5x LTO7).
• Fast Performance – Data can now be retrieved in a matter of seconds (LTO8 – 1180MB/s).
• Lowest cost per GB – still the best long term storage medium.
• Reduced Energy Costs – Tape drives use less power and generate less heat than disk drives.
• Portability – Still the only medium on which you can reliably store data and move it offsite for DR purposes.
• Only Offline Storage Medium – Tape creates an “air gap” whereby the data is completely offline and protected against Ransomware attacks, perfect for GDPR compliance.
