Hey everyone, currently I own an offsite data backup service but we use disk technology .. IE, software that backs up to enterprise SAN's. Many businesses still think tape is the best option (why I dont know, but they do). Anywho, because of this I have been thinking of opening a facility here in our town (phoenix, AZ) that would store and catalog companies offsite tapes.
My question is, for the people that tape and store it offsite, where do you store yours? Do you take them to a facility like I describe above, or what other methods of storage and cataloging do you use.
Also, another important thing is what is your guy's expected turnaround time in the case you ever needed a tape from offsite? 4-hours? 1-hour?
