  • We been using tape backups for 17 years. Old 3480/90 – DAT – LTO. We have only ever had 1 failure to restore – a DAT tape about 15 years ago. We test all backups by removing the tapes from the drive reinserting it and doing a selective restore across the tape. The only other problems ever seen have been due to incorrectly specified backups and less then 1 tape in 100 which is faulty (but this shows up during the backup).
