 Computer Technology Review: Fundamental Differences Between SDLT and LTO Tape Drive Servo Systems - Super Digital Linear Tape, Linear Tape Open - Technology Information
In linear tape recording, data is written on many adjacent tracks that run parallel to the edge of the tape.
Using Digital Linear Tape (DLT) technology, it has been possible to push this technology to record 208 tracks across a one-half-inch tape, allowing each tape to store up to 35GB.
Tape engineers recognized the need for a track-following servo, a mechanism that allows a tape head to dynamically follow a tape track, because track positions fluctuate due to slight media variations, mechanical tolerances, and other environmental factors.

 PCWorld.com - Tape Storage Carves a Role in E-Business
In the same way that disk storage recently underwent a revolution, a wave of recent upgrades to tape storage technology and the development of a new interoperability standard, LTO (Linear Tape Open), has opened the lines of communication among tape vendors in an effort to provide heterogeneous operation and backward-compatibility across proprietary tape storage platforms.
Tape storage media have been used in isolated "islands" during the past 50 years due to what Brenda Zawatski, vice president of removable media solutions at IBM's Storage Systems Division, sees as a lack of cohesive industry vision for tape storage and the unglamorous perception of tape as being an archaic solution.
Invented in the 1950s, tape storage systems "historically have not been as reliable as people would like, and they haven't had the performance that people would like so [tape vendors] are trying to upgrade," Hill says.
