I have been able to recover a archive tape from two years ago without troubles until i recently upgraded SP2 to SP4.

Tape is listed in the imported media folder but the tape now shows as "? unrecognised media" when inventory is processed and cannot recover data anymore.

You would have to go to a data retrieval specialists.  Notmally, these are not cheap.  They will even charge you for an evaluation of the possibility of retrieval.

It could be that the tape has deteriorated after the long storage.

Tape was created in March 2010 and i only accessed last at December 2011 and a number of times before this.

Checked other tapes and found these to be ok, looks like currupt tape, is there any way to retrieve data from a corrupt tape.  Any business in Sydney able to recoveer data.
