FAQ

What are the common scenarios of LTO tape drive failure?

Some common tape media failure scenarios include:

  • Tape Drive Malfunction: The older tape drives that don’t have the features to safeguard the tape from sticking and jamming tend to malfunction, causing damage to the tape and resulting in data loss.
  • Media Deterioration: Any storage device can decay if kept unused for a long duration or in a non-suitable environment. The decay of the tape cartridge may result in a faulty read/write mechanism or data loss. The tapes can store data for decades, but if the environment in which they are kept has humidity, high temperature, and contamination agents, it may cause loss of oxide from tape or read/write issues.
  • Data Corruption: If there is an issue with the backup application, it might result in incorrect writing of files on the tape, thus rendering the data inaccessible. File corruption is more prevalent in the case of old tapes.
  • Overwriting: Repeated overwriting of tapes may result in worn-out tapes. Accidental overwriting due to mismanaged backup and archival strategy may also result in tape failure.
