Tape-to-Tape Migration
Upgrading Your Archives
At your site or ours, S2|DATA can refresh your tape media to the newest, highest capacity generation of backup tape.
Technology moves incredibly fast, and what was cutting-edge ten years ago is probably gathering dust today. If your company relies on older generations of backup tapes, you are running a huge risk. Over time, physical tapes can naturally wear out, and the older machines needed to read them are getting harder and harder to find. If you wait too long, the data trapped on those old tapes might be completely unreadable right when you need it for an important legal request or business audit.
S2|DATA’s Tape-to-Tape Migration service solves this problem by moving your tape backups onto the newest, most reliable storage media available. By upgrading to the latest high-capacity tapes, you have several options available to you, including condensing dozens of old, low-storage tapes onto just one new one.
Did you know that you can fit 400 LTO-1 tapes on one new LTO-10 tape. <maybe format font to stand out or look different from the other text>
This clears out a massive amount of physical storage space in your vault and guarantees that your data can actually be read by modern machines today.
At S2|DATA, we handle the entire upgrade process for you. We safely read your aging media and securely transfer everything onto fresh, durable tapes without losing a single file. Whether you are trying to shrink your physical storage footprint, ditch outdated hardware, or just make sure your historical records stay intact, we do the heavy lifting to future proof your past.
