I think I know the answer to this, but just want to make sure.
Is there a way to recover (via scanner, or something similar) a tape
that someone accidentally overwrote a new label on? In theory, the
data is still on the tape, it just has a new label.
Has anyone had this happen, and successfully recovered the data?
You need a specialist recovery company for this. Standard tape drives
cannot read past the EOT marker. This will be expensive.
