- Hi,
-
- At our site back up all disks via 8mm tape. Does anyone have an idea of the
- life expectancy of the 8mm tape head.
-
- Also, does have an idea of approximately how many times a 2.4gig 8mm tape can
- be reused assuming you are dumping 2gig to the tape, time after time.
-
- Thank you,
- Leslie Steckel
