Common Causes of LTO Tape Failure
LTO tapes are designed for longevity, but like any storage medium, they can fail over time. Understanding the causes of failure can help you act quickly to recover your data.
Media Wear and Tear
Frequent use causes magnetic media to deteriorate, leading to read/write errors.
Physical Damage
Scratches, creases, or broken cartridges can compromise the tape’s readability.
Environmental Factors
Exposure to high temperatures, humidity, or magnetic fields can degrade tape quality.
Dirty or Misaligned Tape Heads
Contaminants on tape heads or improper alignment can cause errors.
Compatibility Issues
Using incompatible or improperly configured drives can make data inaccessible.
