Performance Measurements of Tertiary Storage Devices
Summary: Empirical measurements of tape drives and robotic storage libraries (DLT 4000/7000, Ampex 310, IBM 3590, 4mm DAT, Sony DTF) reveal wide latency variation alongside high transfer rates. Implications for DBMS integration and performance modeling of tape-based tertiary storage. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
