- Tepix 4y agoBut vastly more expensive, that's for sure.
- Nexxxeh 4y agoDepends on the cost of a potential 20%+ loss of data.
- shiftpgdn 4y agoYou needed to run a cleaner through that tape device.
- jmclnx 4y agoNo kidding :) But the company that had the issue (I left a bit ago) believed in "cheaper the better". Cleaners ? That place would expect you to use soap from the restroom :)
