A Tape backup system gives you several advantages when backing up your data. First of all it can be preprogrammed to perform a full backup of all your data as well as your programs and the actual Windows Operating system too. In the event of a catastrophe, the computer could be completely restored from this tape. Also it can be set to run without your intervention, so it can be automated, and therefore not rely on you to remember to perform this mundane task.
