  • Secure Data Storage – White Paper Storage Technologies 2008
    1 Secure Data Storage – White Paper Storage Technologies 2008 Secure Data Storage - An overview of storage technology - Long time archiving from extensive data supplies requires more then only big storage capacity to be economical. Different requirements need different solutions! A technology comparison repays. Author: Dr. Klaus Engelhardt Dr. K. Engelhardt 2 Secure Data Storage – White Paper Storage Technologies 2008 Secure Data Storage - An overview of storage technology - Author: Dr. Klaus Engelhardt Audit-compliant storage of large amounts of data is a key task in the modern business world. It is a mistake to see this task merely as a matter of storage technology. Instead, companies must take account of essential strategic and economic parameters as well as legal regulations. Often one single technology alone is not sufficient to cover all needs. Thus storage management is seldom a question of one solution verses another, but a combination of solutions to achieve the best possible result. This can frequently be seen in the overly narrow emphasis in many projects on hard disk-based solutions, an approach that is heavily promoted in advertising, and one that imprudently neglects the considerable application benefits of optical storage media (as well as those of tape-based solutions). This overly simplistic perspective has caused many professional users, particularly in the field of long-term archiving, to encounter unnecessary technical difficulties and economic consequences. Even a simple energy efficiency analysis would provide many users with helpful insights. Within the ongoing energy debate there is a simple truth: it is one thing to talk about ‘green IT’, but finding and implementing a solution is a completely different matter.

  • IBM Tape History – Session 1: Tape Media Bill Phillips, Ric Bradshaw, Andy Gaudet
    IBM Tape History – Session 1: Tape Media Bill Phillips, Ric Bradshaw, Andy Gaudet Moderated by: Tom Gardner Recorded: October 12, 2015 Tucson, AZ Also present off camera: Joel Levine Al Rizzi John Teale CHM Reference number: X7617.2016 © 2015 Computer History Museum IBM Tape History – Session 1: Media Introduction This is session one of five sessions held in Tucson, AZ, regarding IBM’s tape storage history. The five sessions are: 1. Tape Media (CHM catalog number: 102737992) 2. Overview of tape products and product management (CHM catalog number: 102737994) 3. 3480 tape drive (CHM catalog number: 102738021) 4. Linear Tape Open (LTO) Consortium (CHM catalog number: 102738023) 5. Recovery of tapes damaged in Challenger disaster (CHM catalog number: 102738025). IBM’s tape development began in the late 1940s in the Kenyon Mansion, Poughkeepsie, NY, (later IBM’s management training site)1 and moved to the then new Poughkeepsie lab in 1954. The first production units shipped in 1952. In 1965 production and development moved to Boulder, Colorado, then from Boulder to San Jose, California in 1973 and then back to Boulder in 19772. Its movement to Tucson, Arizona, was announced that same year and began in 1978. For additional history on tape products and technology see: 1. “History of Tape”, IBM Corp., 1978 ca., in CHM lot X7677.2016 2. “Innovations in the Design of Magnetic Tape Subsystems,” Phillips et. al., IBM JRD, September 1981, p. 691-99 3. “Data Storage on Tape,” W.
