When LTO 5 tapes were first introduced in 2010, they offered state-of-the-art capacity for storing data, but today many of the LTO 5 tapes have been retired and are simply taking up space in closets and storage rooms at companies throughout the United States.Sanitization of LTO 5 tapes is possible, which means you can easily dispose of them without concern for compromising valuable company data.  OceanTech is a company based in Minneapolis that serves companies from coast to coast with LTO 5 tape sanitization, erasure or destruction.OceanTech purchases used LTO 5 tapes from companies, and then destroys all data on the tapes before reselling them to companies or organizations that are still using them.  Many organizations are unaware that there is value in these used tapes, but there is.As an electronics recycling company, OceanTech recycles for resale, which means your business will receive two to three times more for them than they would by selling them to another company that is simply going to destroy them.OceanTech also provides full electronics recycling services, so if you have laptops and computers, printers, LCD TVs or high-end networking equipment lying around, contact OceanTech and have it all recycled at the same time.OceanTech’s staff is well-versed in all types of electronics and storage tapes, so you will know exactly what you are getting into when you contact them at 612 331 4456.  The company provides secure data destruction, so there is never a worry about sensitive company information falling into the wrong hands.  If you prefer to have your LTO 5 tapes destroyed, OceanTech can handle that too.For more information on recycling used or new and un-used LTO 5 tapes, contact OceanTech today.
