And other criteria in IT audit u need to have disaster recovery, where u need to transfer to backup server area at least 10km from ur data center.

So someone screw up or drop it during transfer. That guy sure in deep shit when doing transfer backup tape. If uncompressed, lagi teruk.

And those who said backup tape is outdated, what to do where they only backup prawns.

The reason they are still using tapes is because of Bank Negara's stupid requirements for 7 years backup retentions.

Seriously if you guys are in enterprise IT field I really will facepalm .

if it is back in the days of LTO2-3 i think the HDD size is no where that huge as well, but nonetheless i doubt banks will ever go on storing data on HDD, there is a reason why they need to go on tapes, because of a 7 years archival purposes, imagine if they needed to store 7 years of data on HDD, how much would it cost compare to cartridges..
