Description

Abstract: Storage technology has changed over the decade, as has the role of storage in experimental research. Traditionally, magnetic tape has been the technology of choice for archival and narrowly targeted near line storage. In recent years there has been a push to have tape play a larger role in near line storage. In this presentation, the economics of tape are examined in light of changing requirements and technology evolution in disk and tape.
