I don't want to buy it, but I have a question. How hard is it to
erase tapes? We hear a lot about hard drives being sold on ebay and
having data insecurely deleted from it. Different equipment can
recover data overwritten up to so many times. And so on. What about
tapes?
"securely" erase tapes? Not easy.
Why do you need to erase the tapes?
Are you writing unencrypted data to tapes? If so, why?
Backup tapes are probably the only stuff that absolutely *demands*
encryption.
