VXA is the only tape format in the world to write and read data on tapes in individually addressed data Packets. This makes our tapes up to 100 times more able to restore data than other tape formats. Our goal is to be able to restore your data after your worst disaster. In order to ensure this is the case, Tandberg Data is the only tape manufacturer to Disaster Test its tape systems. "Disaster Tested" is Tandberg Data's unique testing method in which we boiled, froze and even dunked VXA tapes in hot coffee, and then we were able to restore 100% of the data.


Our tests are impressive, but perhaps even more impressive are the tests that independent labs around the world have conducted on our VXA Tape systems. We have to admit that even we are surprised at what people have done to our tapes and still restored all of the data. We think you will be too.

We could have stopped after Boiling our tapes, but we didn't�
