Uhm, what? There are tons of ways to prevent data loss, none of them involves writing the data out to tapes and then back in again.

- sushshshsh 6y agoSure, you can also write to disk or other media. But are you trying to argue that certain large companies don't use tape?
- vegardx 6y agoI never said that. There's simply no good reason to periodically write your data from flash to $other every now and them, and then back to flash. There are heaps of other ways to prevent data loss or performance degradation in flash storage. There are methods like tiered storage, where only the most active data is present in Flash-storage, much like write back caching.
