Tape Automation

HP, Overland Storage, Quantum, and Tandberg Data are among the leaders of the tape automation industry. These companies have tape automation options that connect with industry standard formats such as USB drives for easy integration into any network system no matter the complexity. Most organizations will use backup tape automation for the most critical data on their servers and implement that format in tandem with formats such as USB or SATA, so it is important to make sure that the automation solution that is chosen does not clash with the others.

Other vitally important characteristics of tape automation which should be considered before a final purchase include the enclosure type as well as the connector type. The data transfer rate of backup tape automation should improve the overall data transfer rate of a network system as well. Form factor and drive type are other aspects of automation that must not be overlooked. If the right type of automation mechanism is attached to a network a business can save manpower, money and operations time so that resources may be consolidated back into the business.Close
