Any successful business man would tell you that there is no fixed formula to the success of the business. Most business men have consensus on the idea that success is a mix of several factors. A business must excel in not just one factor but in all those that are essential for success. These factors can include, marketing department, sales, production, operations and lastly technology. Any business that employs state of the art technology automatically develops a completive edge in the industry. State of the art technology allows businesses to keep up with the fast moving trends of consumer demands and changes in consumer taste. It is the job of the technical department to install a suitable medium of backup technology for the business. This medium creates a duplicate copy of important business data and keeps it safe elsewhere. The IT department musts evaluate all options before they decide to install a particular product. This job is easier for large scale and small scale businesses but a little tricky for medium sized businesses. The problem with medium sized businesses is that they need to store and process moderate amounts ...
... of data and most backup technology products have large store capacities. There is no harm in installing a tape that processes large amounts of data except that they are more expensive and infringe a burden on medium sized businesses.

Considering the situation discussed above it has been concluded that HP’s highly advantageous LTO-3 system is one of the ideal mediums of backup technology for medium sized businesses. The tape has the potential of saving 400 GB of raw data and 800 GB of compressed data. The processing speed is 80 Megabytes’ per second for raw data and 160 Megabytes’ per second for compressed data. The tape is capable of not only performing all the basic functions but also exclusive features like WORM. HP LTO3 tape drive writes the data into the tape once and then does not allow any kind of editing and changing. This feature ensures that once the data is entered it cannot be forged or misused. The tape drive however does not put any limit on the number of times the data is accessed, it is unlimited.

It is very difficult for medium sized businesses to spare aside a lot of money every month for installing backup tapes. HP LTO3 tape is priced at such an economical level those most medium sized businesses can easily afford it. Other than this the compressed storage capacity of the tape allows businesses to substitute it for two tapes. This means, businesses can enjoy two secondary benefits.
