Guest Paul Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Hi - I have a load of old backup tapes that I need to get the data from as quick and easily as possible. What's the best software for this? Just plain and simple data retrieval?? I have a good budget I can use if needed. Also I think one or two tapes might be corrupt too, so if it could handle then that would be great! Thanks Paul

Easiest solution is to give the task to some data recovery outfit. Many also do copying of non-corrupt older media to new media for a fee. Arno
