Tape recovery services
Data recovery from tape is done in-house using one of two main methods. Firstly, we can recover using our extensive library of tape backup software, or we can take a direct dump from the tape and use our proprietary software to extract the data directly from the dump.
The latter is most often used in tapes that the backup software rejects, or you are unable to remove a tape from the drive, or the tape has snapped, etc.
You've just been given a bundle of legacy tapes from a department, and they urgently need information from one of those tapes, but the old hardware has long gone.
Tape restoration service
As a part of our recovery service, we also offer a tape restoration service where we copy the data from an existing tape to hard drive. This enables access to old data where the hardware or software is no longer available any more.
We maintain stocks of tape drives from old legacy systems such as Travan through to the latest LTO tape drives.
We can recover from most backup software including NT Backup, Backup Exec, Arcserve, Yosemite, Seagate Backup, UNIX Tar, Linux backups, and many more.
