When you are storing mission critical data to your LTO tapes, it becomes important to Identify a defective tape before it fails.  You can stop using your old tapes, if you know the overall health and condition of the tape.

Mostly the system admins rely on the date of purchase, or number of loads to determine if a tape should be retired. However there are many factors to be considered like age of the tape, number of times it's loaded, overall quality of the tape, environment and the condition of the tape drive used, number of read/write errors and servo track errors that it has produced etc.

Maxell CM Analyzer is an excellent product that lets you Analyze your LTO tape quickly. This small device connects to your PC Via the USB port. You place your LTO tape on the CM analyzer and it shows you all the vital information the memory on your cartridge holds.

To make things simple, it even gives you a single score of 0-100 that can quickly give you an idea of your tape's overall health.

Ideally you should periodically check your LTO tapes with the analyzer to ensure that the tapes are good to use, and retire any tape that doesn't have the score of at least 80.

Imation has announced purpose-built backup appliances, with multiple levels of Data Protection.

The T5R is the first of it's kind that has an RDX slot built in the NAS tower. This RDX Slot gives the device immense potential. You can use the RDX cartridge to take the data for off site storage or transport it across multiple locations where the limited bandwidth may otherwise make it difficult.

DataGuard T5R works with popular cloud storage vendors like Amazon S3 and Drop box.  The Initial cloud seeding that otherwise may take months, can become a snap, by transporting an RDX cartridge.

Imation talks of 4 levels of Protection with a single Device to utilize hard drives, removable RDX disk cartridges, replication and cloud storage.

The device ships without hard drive, which the consumer can add to their preference. Now that Imation has taken a lead again in designing a clever product, others may follow soon.

We are glad to announce the introduction of 2 important services related to Data backup and storage- offsite data storage and Data Destruction.

Offisite Data Storage ensures that your data is safely stored at a location, isolated from your live data  and readily available whenever required. Our Media Vaulting services offer you offsite data storage, media rotation and easy retrieval whenever required.

Data Destruction is almost inevitable as your needs for data storage grow and you upgrade your tape drives. Old tape media should be safely destroyed in an environmental friendly way. We provide a certificate of destruction after the tapes are destroyed.

Recently HP Announced that the HP C8007A ( DLT VS 160) are not orderable anymore. It's hardly surprising, given the small volumes and overhead they might have to keep the factory running.

On the flip side, there is some HP inventory still lying in channel, and there are plenty of stocks in other brands, so there won't be an immediate supply constrain for the VS160 users. however it looks like the End user eventually is going to have to go the LTO way.

The demand on other DLT Media like SDLT-1 and SDLT-II is also declining and the prices are going up, that should further encourage mirgration to LTO.
