Generally cheaper storage per dollar, however to read and write the data the reader has to read from all the way to the start of the tape to where the data is. This is much more slower than conventional hard drives found in today's typical desktop. This means, magnetic tape is better suited to longer term data storage (i.e. backups) rather than daily use
