Our local unix sys admin group has scheduled a talk on
the current state of tape technology. For those in
the New Jersey, USA area I've included the announcement.
Next $GROUPNAME Meeting, Thursday March 27th,2003.
7:00pm Social, 7:30pm speaker
Where: Rutgers Core Bldg (link to directions
below)
Our speaker will be Mike McCorkle, National
Technical Support Manager for Fuji Photo Film
U.S.A. His topic, A Plethora of Open Systems
Tape Options for Disaster Recovery, will give
you an overview of the role that magnetic
tape plays in Disaster Recovery planning. Mike
will discuss how backup media has changed over
the years and the current demand for high
capacity high-speed data storage tape.
An abundance of tape drive choices are
available today and more expected in the coming
year. There may be one that fits your backup
needs better than another; Mike will offer
insight about making the right choices.
Mike McCorkle's presentation will be a high
level primer on magnetic tape systems. Mike
will discuss how backup media has changed over
the years, driven by a demand for high capacity
tapes with high-speed data transfer and
improved reliability of tape storage systems.
Refreshments will be provided.
