Recovering Data From Tape Backup After a Disaster

Submitted by admin on September 10, 2010 – 2:35 amNo Comment

Data serves as the basis of any successful running business. Important data for any business includes the communication messages (emails, attachments, reviews, legal documents etc), contacts (employers, partners etc), project documents etc. Most of the business owners backup their imperative data in removable storage media such as Pen drives, external hard disks, tapes etc (the most common type of media).

Using tape backup is an easy and a common solution for business owners who look for a way to secure their backup using the best data recovery solution. Tape backups are considered the easiest and easily available key to business entities looking to archive large amount of information and organization data. After creating a tape backup, leaving the same tape backup copy next to the server might result in data loss disasters. Often companies ignore the prospect of destruction to their office property due to floor, fire etc. Owing to such risks, all their imperative data that was stored in the removable tape backup storage media or the data that was backed up on the server is lost forever.

In a disaster situation of fire or flood, the data you kept safe on the server or in the storage media serves no purpose as the office does not exists any more. Unfortunately, for a company owner, they have to restart the entire process of collecting data, contacts and important legal documents again as data recovery from such disasters is almost equal to impossible. Hence, a company must always ensure to plan data recovery with creating backup tapes and storing them at off-site location. To avoid the disaster issues, many of the business owners outsource their tape management services to professional tape storage service providers. These tape storage service providers provide a 24 X 7 service to the business owners but they charge a bit too much from them. Well, tape storage service providers have to charge so much, as they are providing a suitable environment to the basis of their business i.e. their important data.

But with environmental effects such as heat, water or moisture and mishandling due to human errors, tapes might become inaccessible. What would you do if your important backup files in a tape storage media get corrupt or inaccessible due to such mishandlings? Switching to a professional tape recovery software is the only option that can help you get your important backup data back.

Using the efficient tape recovery software, you can retrieve data from all kinds of corrupt, damaged or inaccessible tape cartridges such as Digital Linear Tape (DLT), Linear Tape Open (LTO), Advanced Intelligent Tape (AIT), Digital Audio Tape (DAT) etc. A large number of businesses employ Tape cartridges for saving their data due to the benefit of high capacity storage they offer at lowest costs. The data stored in these tape files are very important and hence tape recovery software is the only way to replenish the data so lost.

Owing to the powerful algorithms of this tape recovery software, you can scan the corrupt, damaged or inaccessible tapes and retrieve the selected data as per your requirement. Hence, you can say that retrieving the data from tape backup is never easy without tape recovery software.
