Tape Backup Drives

Tape backup drives are data storage devices that use magnetic tape commonly used for archiving data. Tape backup drives are known for being efficient at storing archival data; businesses still use these despite the popularity of more advanced data storage devices such as CDs, DVDs, removable flash drives, and hard drives.

Tape backup drives store data similarly to a tape recorder recording sound. The reels turn to run the magnetic tape over a read/write head, where data recording occurs. Over time, these have become more compact yet store more data, up to hundreds of gigabytes and have transfer rates similar to hard drives.

When it comes to business, having reliable data storage devices is crucial. PC Mall provides you with high-quality tape drives from trusted brands such as Sony, HP, Imation, and Quantum. Our deals ensure great value for your budget.
