Are fireproof safes capable of preserving magnetic info? The temperature inside most fireproof safes rises well above the threshold of saving data. --------------------------------- Booth Martin http://www.martinvt.com --------------------------------- -------Original Message------- From: Midrange Systems Technical Discussion Date: 05/07/04 15:35:41 To: midrange-l@xxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: the whoops! and off site tape storage > What are other doing with regard to moving backup tapes off site? Today is Friday. Night operator comes in to work with Wednesday night's tapes and puts them in the fireproof safe. Night operator takes last Friday's tapes out of the safe and backs up on them. Night operator leaves and takes tonight's tapes home. On Monday, the Thursday tapes come in to the safe, etc. Result: Two most recent backups are offsite, previous two weeks are in the safe. There is a small overlap where only one set of tapes is offsite, but it was deemed acceptable. --buck _______________________________________________ This is the Midrange Systems Technical Discussion (MIDRANGE-L) mailing list To post a message email: MIDRANGE-L@xxxxxxxxxxxx To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/mailman/listinfo/midrange-l or email: MIDRANGE-L-request@xxxxxxxxxxxx Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/midrange-l.
