Tape or Data Cartridge systems are often sequential access and therefore better suited to file backup, data archives and file data transfer between systems. There are a multitude of format battles making a large array of options including different compression ratios, and the problem is compounded by the huge variety of software used to make the tape backup originally. Often this information is not even known when people come to restore files from the tape back to a hard drive or other media.
