The world of magnetic tapes is complex. It involves considering the type of tape, the hardware used, the software, and its version. We can recover data from a tape even if the software used no longer exists. We can migrate from one type of tape to another to minimize the number used (e.g., migrating from LTO 2 to 8 or compressing data). Whatever your needs are, we can handle it!
We can retrieve, migrate, catalog, convert, and audit all types of magnetic tapes
