The technology choice for implementing deep and active digital archives has historically been between tape and optical. Content addressed systems that are based on commodity disk drives have recently become available as an alternative. The Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG) was contracted by Plasmon, a
leading optical archiving solutions provider, to perform a third party analysis of the cost of acquisition and ownership of each of these archival technologies – tape, optical, and disk. This analysis is based on the actual case study of a financial services firm shopping for a 12 TB archive.
