Description
Capacity and data Transfer Rates
The DW065B HP Ultrium 232 100/200GB LTO Ultrium 1 SCSI LVD External Tape Drive is a tape drive that uses LTO (Linear Tape-Open) technology to store data. It has a maximum storage capacity of 100GB (uncompressed) or 200GB (compressed) per tape cartridge.
The data transfer rate for this drive is 20MB/s (uncompressed) or 40MB/s (compressed). This means that it can write or read data at a rate of 20MB/s or 40MB/s, depending on whether the data is compressed or not. The drive uses the SCSI LVD (Low Voltage Differential) interface for data transfer, which allows for faster data transfer speeds than traditional SCSI interfaces.
The drive is external, which means it can be connected to a computer or server using a SCSI cable, making it an ideal choice for data backup and archiving.
Compatibility and Connectivity Options
The DW065B HP Ultrium 232 100/200GB LTO Ultrium 1 SCSI LVD External Tape Drive is a tape drive that uses Linear Tape-Open (LTO) technology to store and retrieve data. It is compatible with LTO Ultrium 1 tapes, which have a maximum storage capacity of 100GB or 200GB, depending on the tape used.
In terms of connectivity, the DW065B is compatible with SCSI LVD (Low Voltage Differential) interfaces. This means that it can be connected to a computer or server using a SCSI cable and a SCSI controller card. The LVD interface provides a higher data transfer rate and improved signal quality compared to traditional SCSI interfaces.
The DW065B is an external tape drive, which means it can be connected to a computer or server through a USB or FireWire connection. This allows for easy data backup and archiving, as well as easy transport of data between different computers or servers.
Backup and archiving Capabilities
The DW065B HP Ultrium 232 100/200GB LTO Ultrium 1 SCSI LVD External Tape Drive is a backup and archiving device that allows users to store large amounts of data on a single tape cartridge. It uses LTO (Linear Tape-Open) technology, which offers high data transfer rates and high storage capacity.
The drive has a capacity of 100GB (compressed) or 200GB (compressed) and can read and write LTO Ultrium 1 tapes. It uses the SCSI LVD (Low Voltage Differential) interface for connecting to a computer or server.
The drive also has a built-in hardware data compression feature, which allows users to store more data on a single tape by reducing the size of the data before it is written to the tape. This feature can increase the storage capacity of the tape by up to 2.5 times.
The DW065B HP Ultrium 232 tape drive is designed for use in small to medium-sized businesses, and is ideal for backup and archiving large amounts of data. It can be used for a variety of applications, such as data backup, disaster recovery, data archiving, and long-term storage.
