  • Faulty part replaced
  • Routine replacement of pinch rollers, reel tops etc.
  • Drive re-assembled and re-aligned to manufacturers spec. using scope and interchange tape
  • Drive tested on retail back up software and manufacturers test software and if requested customer specific hardware
  • Conformance, Fault Report & Final Test results documented on request
  • Warranty sealed, anti-static bagged
  • Service

We offer a fast 5-day turnaround time, ensuring minimum down time or stock disruption. Each tape drive repair is returned with a minimum of 6-months no quibble warranty. We also offer free technical support to all our customers and those who have not traded with us but are in need of assistance. We have a dedicated team of tape data storage specialist waiting to help with any enquiry you may have.
