After a power surge trashed a server for a small office, I'm trying to get
what data they did have backed up on a 20g Travan tape drive. There are
three tapes & when trying to catalog them I get the error message "the
device reported an error on a request to space backward file marks. Error
reported: Bad Data" on one tape & the same message, except the error
reported is "Hardware Failure" on another tape. These tapes were backed up
using Windows own backup program, & I am trying to restore them using the
same program on the new computer.
Does this mean the backups haven't been working?
Is there anyway I can try to recover data?
