New innovative “packet technology” has been introduced in the VXA backup tape system for retrieval and storage of data. VXA data packets provide its customers unmatched and incomparable speed, durability and capacity. VXA packet technology provides more benefits and advantages to the organizations which the traditional track based tape formats are unable to offer. VXA packet technology provides scalable storage capacities, unmatchable transfer speeds, and exceptional restore integrity. Adoption by original equipment manufacturers such as IBM, and the excellent reviews by the experts & analysts of storage medium have made VXA tape as new standard in the backup storage media.

The most important feature of the VXA data tapes is that it has the latest technologies to overcome “back-hitching”. Major reason for back hitching is the difference among the data rates of host and tape drive during data transfer. When these two data speeds are out of sync, then this leads to back hitching. So in order to re-synchronize with the tape’s data tracks, the tape drive stops the data transfer, rewinds and then again moves forward. So the worries and problems of data administrators are over as the VXA backup tape technology has eliminated back-hitching.

The VXA tape drives do not read the tracks like the other traditional drives do. Instead the VXA tape drive reads the data packets. The technology of data packet in VXA tape assists in matching with the transfer speed of host without back-hitching. Back hitching is prevented by VXA tape drive even at point where it could completely stop and then can continue again without back-hitch. By the elimination of back hitching, wear & tear of the VXA tape media reduces which assures longer tape life and greater durability. Tape4backup offers lowest prices on all VXA and other data tapes.

Independent labs conduct tests on VXA X data tape cartridges under extreme conditions that include hot coffee, boiling water test, freezing the tapes and putting the cartridges in volcanic dust. VXA data tapes pass through these harsh tests successfully and complete data is resorted form them.

The chance of recovering data from damaged VXA tape cartridge is 183-times more than other tape formats. Data packet mechanism enables the VXA data tapes, autoloaders and drives to write & read the information onto the VXA tape media in the form of packets just as the data moves through the internet. Data through the internet is transferred in packet form.

VXA packet technology provides scalable storage capacities, unmatchable transfer speeds, and exceptional restore integrity. Adoption by original equipment manufacturers such as IBM, and the excellent reviews by the experts & analysts of storage medium have made VXA tape as new standard in the backup storage media. VXA alliance has been launched by the leading organizations around the world that support & promote the VXA tape format as new standard in backup tape industry. The VXA tape drives support all the leading OS (operating systems) that include Linux, Mac-OS, UNIX, MS Windows and Novell Netware etc. Reliable and economical VXA data tapes elevate the efficiency of the companies and protect their precious data & information.
