Description
Capacity and data Transfer Rates
The Dell LTO4-EX1 800/1600GB LTO-4 SAS External Tape Drive has a storage capacity of 800GB (compressed) or 1600GB (compressed) of data. It uses the LTO-4 (Linear Tape-Open 4) format, which is a type of magnetic tape data storage technology.
In terms of data transfer rates, the Dell LTO4-EX1 has a native data transfer rate of 120MB/s and a compressed data transfer rate of 240MB/s. This means that it can read and write data at a speed of 120MB/s (or 240MB/s when using compression) when transferring data to and from the tape drive. This makes it a fast and efficient option for backup and archival storage.
The Dell LTO4-EX1 also uses SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) interface for connecting to the host system, which is a high-speed data transfer protocol that can support faster data transfer rates than other types of interfaces.
