Tape drives come in different types – Digital Linear Tape (DLP), Linear Tape Open (LTO), Advanced Intelligent Tape (AIT), and Digital Audio Tape (DAT). These tape drives are prone to corruption due to various reasons like erased, damaged, or misaligned tape drives, broken backup tapes, unexpected system shutdown, etc. Whatever the reason, tape file recovery software works best and recovers entire data stored within them with complete accuracy.
