Description
High-Speed Data Transfer
CD72LWH-SST is a Quantum 36GB Native 72GB Compressed DAT 72 Ultra2 SCSI LVD Internal Tape Drive. This means that the tape drive has a native storage capacity of 36GB, which means that it can store 36GB of data without any compression. However, it can also compress data, increasing the storage capacity to 72GB. This means that you can store twice as much data on the tape drive than you would be able to without compression.
The tape drive also uses the Ultra2 SCSI interface, which is a faster version of the SCSI interface commonly used for data storage. This allows for high-speed data transfer, meaning that data can be written to and read from the tape drive quickly. The tape drive also uses the LVD (Low Voltage Differential) signaling, which is a technology that allows for increased data transfer rates and improved signal integrity.
Compressed Storage Capacity
The CD72LWH-SST Quantum 36GB Native 72GB Compressed DAT 72 Ultra2 SCSI LVD Internal Tape Drive Compressed Storage Capacity refers to the amount of data that can be stored on the tape drive when using data compression techniques. The native storage capacity, or the amount of data that can be stored without compression, is 36GB. However, when data compression is used, the storage capacity increases to 72GB. This means that the tape drive can store twice as much data when compression is used, resulting in more efficient use of the tape and more cost-effective storage options. The drive uses the Ultra2 SCSI LVD interface, which provides faster data transfer speeds and higher data throughput. The drive is designed for internal use, meaning it is installed inside a computer or server.
Data Backup and Archiving
The CD72LWH-SST Quantum 36GB Native 72GB Compressed DAT 72 Ultra2 SCSI LVD Internal Tape Drive is a data backup and archiving device that uses DAT (Digital Audio Tape) technology to store and preserve digital data. The device has a native storage capacity of 36GB, which means that it can store up to 36GB of data in its original format without compression. However, the device also uses compression technology to increase the storage capacity to 72GB, allowing for more data to be stored on the tape.
The device uses Ultra2 SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) technology, which is a high-speed data transfer protocol that enables fast data transfer between the tape drive and the host computer. The device also uses LVD (Low Voltage Differential) technology, which is a signaling method that reduces the voltage level required to transfer data, resulting in longer cable distances and faster data transfer rates.
The CD72LWH-SST Quantum 36GB Native 72GB Compressed DAT 72 Ultra2 SCSI LVD Internal Tape Drive is designed for use in internal server environments, and is typically used for data backup and archiving purposes. The device is capable of storing large amounts of data, and can be used to preserve important files and documents for long-term storage. Additionally, the device can be used to create multiple copies of data for disaster recovery purposes.
