[Discuss] Long term data - moving it off spinning disk - other ideas?

[gaf at blu.org (Jerry Feldman)]

TSM is simply a backup/recovery service, but it does not specify the
media the data is to be stored on. The big advantage to you is that the
data is archived and can be easily recovered, and you offload it from
your NAS.
We have had discussions before on suitability of media for long-term
storage.
