If you’ve got old MLR or SLR tapes collecting dust, now is the perfect time to turn them into cash. At DES Technologies, we specialize in buying used Magnetic Linear Recording (MLR) and Scalable Linear Recording (SLR) tapes from businesses, data centers, and IT professionals. We make the process simple, secure, and profitable so you can free up storage space while earning back value from outdated media.
What Are MLR/SLR Tapes?
MLR and SLR tapes are high-capacity data storage solutions that were widely used between the 1990s and early 2000s. Known for their scalability, reliability, and long-term archival capabilities, they were a staple for enterprise-level backups and disaster recovery plans.
Although many organizations have since transitioned to modern solutions like LTO or cloud storage, MLR/SLR tapes still hold residual value. Instead of letting them sit unused, you can sell used MLR/SLR tape to us for competitive pricing and peace of mind.
