Tape Data Recovery Services and Media Repair

Tape drives store data in sequential order based storage, unlike a hard disk drive, which provides random access data storage. Hard disk drives move the read/write heads to any random part of the disk very quickly retrieving data for the user. A tape drive must spend a considerable amount of time winding tape between reels to read any one particular piece of data. As a result, tape drives have very slow average seek times making them more suitable for backups and archiving data.

Because these tapes are often used as backup solutions, and are relied upon as a fall back should you need to restore to critical data. Its critical to have a service available such as that offered by Data Recovery Aid that can repair these tapes if they become damaged. After all what do you do if your backup system fails?...
