Graham Magnetics Announces World’s First Commercial Process for Full Data Eradication with Servo Track Preservation
Atlanta (March 20, 2006) - Graham Magnetics, a division of eMag Solutions, a leading electronic discovery company, today announced the availability of what is believed to be the world’s first commercial process for full data eradication with servo track preservation. The announcement was made at the AFCOM Data Center World™ Spring Conference in Atlanta.
To date, high density tape users have been unable to remove data without destroying the critical servo tracks necessary for tape operation. This results in users having to physically destroy tapes, rendering valuable media assets unusable.
Graham Magnetics’ engineers have now developed a solution to this problem - creating what is believed to be the world’s first commercial process for removing sensitive data while preserving the servo tracks. As the third tier in eMag’s proven data eradication offering, the on-site process safely removes all data from 3590K, 9840 and LTO tapes, thus enabling end users to either reuse or resell the tapes thereby maximizing their media assets.
"We see this technology development as a real breakthrough,” said Marvin Howell, vice president of Graham Magnetics. “Our Tier ‘3’ data eradication offering removes all data – no matter the format - thus providing end users with an effective way to meet all of their Intelligent Asset Management needs.”
