Why Tape Backup for Small Business Makes Sense Against Ransomware

from The Backup Wrap-Up

Tape backup for small business might sound like old tech, but Mag Store's new Thunderbolt-compatible tape drive could change that perception. In this episode, we discuss how this new offering potentially opens tape technology to a wider market of SMBs and content creators looking for ransomware protection and cost-effective long-term storage.Curtis and Prasanna dive into the specifics of when tape backup makes financial sense for small business data protection, particularly for companies generating large amounts of data or concerned about cloud security. They explore the $6,000 upfront investment against the long-term benefits of $90 tape cartridges that hold 45TB compressed. Perfect for SMBs with on-premises data or YouTube creators needing affordable archive solutions that are truly air-gapped from ransomware threats.
