Data Archiving with Frame Foundry

The Problem

You have Terabytes of data that is too important to lose, but too expensive to maintain. You cannot afford to make a second copy in the event of fire, flood, accidental deletion, ransomware, or theft.

Hard drive life expectancy is just 3-5 years. After that, data needs to be copied onto a fresh hard drive. However, this is cost prohibitive.

Data should be

SAFE. It should not degrade on the shelf.

Storage should be

CHEAP. Hard drive costs are not decreasing while storage requirements increase.

Archiving should be

EASY. Let us do the work for you. HINT: Even with our labor it’s cheaper than doing it yourself!

The Solution

Let Frame Foundry archive your data to cheap, reliable LTO tape. Whether it’s a second copy or an archive of older media, tape is reliable and trusted by major companies such as banks, Google, and Facebook.

32TB on a Lacie 5big is $3000 vs $1280 including labor for tape.

Now is the time to free up your drives for future work or safeguard them from failure.
