transmits a data group generated in accordance with the selected mode, to the tape drive.

2. The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the processor selects the one mode according to each of the plurality of pieces of data.

3. The information processing device according to claim 2 ,

wherein the processor selects the one mode by using at least one of a compression ratio of the data, a time required for compression, or a time required for transmission of the data group to the tape drive.

4. The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the processor selects the one mode according to the magnetic tape of a recording destination of the data group.

5. The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the processor selects the one mode according to a time slot in which processing of collecting the plurality of pieces of data into the data group is performed.

6. The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the processor selects the one mode according to a resource status of the information processing device.

7. The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the processor selects the one mode according to a maximum transmission rate of data to the tape drive and a reception rate of the plurality of pieces of data, which are determined according to a standard of a connection interface between the information processing device and the tape drive.

8. The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the processor evaluates at least one of the first mode, the second mode, or the third mode to select the one mode according to an evaluation result.

9. The information processing device according to claim 8 ,

wherein the processor changes the number of evaluation targets according to a resource status of the information processing device.

10. The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the processor selects the one mode according to the number of parallel processing in a case where processing of collecting the plurality of pieces of data into the data group is performed in parallel.

11. The information processing device according to claim 1 ,

wherein the processor selects a compression algorithm used for data compression according to the magnetic tape of a recording destination of the data group, a time slot in which processing of collecting the plurality of pieces of data into the data group is performed, or a resource status of the information processing device, in a case where the second mode or the third mode is selected.

12. The information processing device according to claim 2 ,

wherein the processor selects a compression algorithm used for data compression according to the magnetic tape of a recording destination of the data group, a time slot in which processing of collecting the plurality of pieces of data into the data group is performed, or a resource status of the information processing device, in a case where the second mode or the third mode is selected.

13. The information processing device according to claim 3 ,
