FASTtape2300

Tape copy system

FASTtape2300

Simple system configuration specialized
for copying magnetic tape media and tape migration
at system renewal

Summary

High speed copy duplicator which does not depend on the application

FASTtape2300 copies the recorded image of a tape as it is in block unit.

For example, ideal for the purpose of use to copy one more set of backup tapes and store them in a remote place for disaster prevention.

FASTtape2300 has the following merits compared with copy function of backup software.
1) There is no distinction between a primary tape and a secondary tape and it enables easy recovery because it copies exactly the same tape
2) Since copying off-line, it does not put any load on the operation system.

On the other hand, it is possible to copy to a different type of tape, so you can use it for the purpose to migrate the tapes written in an older model to a new model at system renewal.
It is also used for copying large numbers of the same tapes for data distribution.
