Tape Drives |
|
By far the most popular choice in data backups. Tape drives use tape based media to store data. The advantage to using tapes over CD’s or DVD’s is storage space. A tape can hold anywhere from 2GB all the way into the hundreds of Gigabytes depending on ones needs. |
|
CD and DVD backups |
|
CD’s and DVD’s are cheap and have relatively good integrity. However a CD-R will only hold 700MB of data and a DVD-R about 4.5GB. This form of backup is perfect for instances where small amounts of data need to be stored but is not recommended for large data needs. DVD technology is advancing quickly with the expected release of the dual layer DVD which will hold significantly more data. |
|
Hard-Drive Based Backups |
|
Hard-drive based backups provide the most storage space for large data backups. Most hard drive backup solutions cost significantly more upfront than a tape drive or DVD media backups, but continually buying tapes and DVD’s will eventually equal the cost of a hard drive system. |
