Developing a Backup Strategy

This is a hardware book, so we don’t spend much time on software. But, in our experience, many people who buy a tape drive have no idea how to use it effectively. We won’t try to explain how to use your backup software because the specifics vary and nearly any software bundled with a tape drive is sufficient for the task, but we will devote some space to explaining how to get the most from your tape drive and backup software.
