DEGAUSSING SERVICES

dE-'gaus : to remove or neutralize the magnetic field of <degauss a magnetic tape> - de·gauss·er noun
Degaussing is the process of "ERASING" the recorded signal on most magnetic data storage by passing through a strong magnetic
field, which restores them back to their original or "blank" condition. This process recycles your surplus tape as a new data storage.

Why should most magnetic media and tapes be degaussed?
Do not throw away old surplus tapes. Tape should be degaussed for many reasons. Increase data security. Eliminate viruses and/or corrupt data. Conform to privacy and media storage laws. Restore many types of storage media back to its original condition. Improve recording performance. Save money by recycling or reusing old storage. Achieve tape drive and cartridge compatibility.

Why do most companies not degauss their own tape?
MONEY! Most companies do not want the added cost of expensive equipment and additional labor costs. By handling thousands of pieces each month, we are able to provide an easy and economical way for companies to reduce costs and increase their backup performance. Please contact us for additional information about our services, our buy-back list, and a sample Confidentiality/Non-Disclosure Agreement to ensure the security of your data.
