Integrity and Reliability
Tape cartridges play a key role in the data integrity and reliability of Tandberg Data products. Combining the right cartridge media and Tandberg tape drives gives you the best possible cost of ownership solutions on the market today.

• Select the proper capacity tape media for your drive.
• Buy enough tapes to allow the tape rotation scheme you need.
• Use Cleaning Cartridges regularly.
• Remember to take backup tapes off site - (store them correctly too!) for disaster recovery.

Tape Rotation = Successful Backups
Using only one tape for backup does not protect your data properly. To ensure complete protection you need to devise a tape rotation strategy which fits your business hours and needs. Your dealer will be able to advise you on your needs, alternatively Tandberg Data have devised several tape rotation schemes that may suit your needs.
