I'm using a DLT(IMATION) tapes for my back-ups.
and I do my back-ups every months.
Before back-ups, I usally erased the contents of those DLT tapes that was used 2 months before...
I just want to ask how manytimes can we re_used this DLT tapes??

thanks

Hi,

You should be able to use them for years. However It would be best to confirm with the vendor you've bought them from.

Also, watch out for read/write errors. Once you get errors on a tape, you should replace it on the spot!

Best regards.

Frank
