The ECHO Process
At ECHO, your data security is key. The ECHO certification process begins with secure and safe transportation of used media to our facility. Tapes then undergo complete and thorough data erasure. Every tape is validated with a read test to verify elimination of data. Tapes are tested on OEM drives to ensure performance. That’s better than ANSI standards! Then tapes are cleaned, shrink-wrapped, and packaged in attractive ECHO brand packaging; and finally ECHO tapes are available to be purchased by you. That’s why we can offer a guarantee on every ECHO 100% Certified tape.
Label and initialization services are offered on ECHO products, and same day shipping is available on most orders.
The Difference
Certified Tape Media
Certified tape media is simply magnetic tape media that is being reused. Currently, there are many definitions of what constitutes certified tape media. Different levels of testing exist to verify the condition of used tape media, and there is no one universal standard to which tape media is held to be considered certified.
The ECHO Difference
Media can only be considered ECHO 100% Certified after having endured rigorous testing and having met ECHO’s strict standards. ECHO guarantees that every ECHO tape has been erased, tested, and guaranteed to perform new tape standards setting an unmatched precedence for reliability.
