John, that's grasping at straws.
I wasn't aware you could buy the platter separately, and insert it into a
drive bought without platter.
HD have electronics. You transport the thing whole. Tapes are tapes, have
no electronics. You insert the tape into a box that has.

It is indeed. When you transport a backup in a HD, its electronics is
vulnerable. You can have several tapes drives to read the same tape: if
the electronics breaks in one, you can have another one.
