There are advantages to using magnetic tape to store your long-term archival and compliance data. These include:
- Low cost per gigabyte
- Economical compliance
- Ease of transport
- Tape level encryption
Tape archiving supports your retention of data for regulatory compliance. You may choose a tape and disk hybrid approach to facilitate your long-term data retention. Tape is less costly than other forms of media, such as optical disk or remote backup.
If your organization chooses tape archiving as a cost-effective solution, the best insurance you can put on that plan is to store those tapes in our vault.
