| 4 mm drives and LTOs seem to
be the popular choice and are likely to remain so in the near future;
however, over time, there is a possibility that networked storage media
could score over tape drives even in the secondary storage domain. |

Asia/Pacific Branded Tape Drive, 2004-2009, 7/05 |
| Though
Australia and China would continue to contribute the largest to the
tape drive market in the near future, India is likely to do a fast
catch up; in fact, in terms of unit shipment, India has already
moved ahead of China and would remain #2 to only Australia in the
A-Pac region. |
