About the White Paper:
Tape drives have become the preferred device for backing up hard disk data files, storing data and protecting against data loss. This white paper examines three leading mid-range tape drive technologies available today: Sony AIT, Exabyte Mammoth and Quantum DLT. These three technologies employ distinctly different recording formats and exhibit different performance characteristics. Therefore, choosing among and investing in one of these technologies calls for a complete understanding of their respective strengths and weaknesses. |
