Data Restore

Tandberg Data Corporation offers SMB products built on award-winning VXA Packet Technology and designed specifically for data restore - up to 180 times better than DDS and DLT tape drives.

VXA Extreme is the definitive proof that VXA tape drives can restore data which, with any other tape technology, would be lost without any chance of recovery. In the VXA Extreme Tests, VXA tape drives perform data restore from tapes that have been boiled, frozen solid, and dunked in hot coffee.

Ingeni�ren, a Danish engineering publication, took our challenge — all three tests, with one tape cartridge. That's Extreme Testing to restore data. See their results, translated into English.

There is no substitute for proper care of your data restore and data storage equipment. No tape manufacturer intends for media to be subjected to the conditions of the VXA Extreme Tests as part of normal use. But, if and when the unthinkable happens, wouldn't you rather be on the safe side with VXA?

VXA Packet Technology offers network managers data reliability that is unmatched in the industry for data restore. VXA Packets write and read data in small packets, like the Internet. This is a much safer and more efficient way to store and retrieve data from tape and a better way to handle data restore issues.

The Storage Loader VXA-172 sets a new standard in data reliability, capacity, transfer speed, and data restore capabilities for the price. It is the only 1u autoloader with a field-replaceable drive, allowing for easy upgrades to future generations of VXA drives without the cost of buying a whole new autoloader.

Take this multimedia tour to see how VXA can restore data better than track-based technology like DDS and DLT.

The VXA-172 is also available in a single tape drive. Watch an online tour of the VXA-172 Packet Tape Drive.
