Product overview of the HP DW085-60010
The DW085-60010 HP 200/400GB Ultrium 448 LTO-2 SAS Internal HH Tape Drive is a high-performance storage device designed to meet the growing data storage needs of businesses. This tape drive is a perfect solution for businesses that require fast and reliable data backup and archiving.
A tape drive is a device used to read and write data on magnetic tape. Magnetic tape is a thin strip of plastic coated with a magnetic material that is used to store data. Tape drives are commonly used for long-term data storage and backup purposes because they can store large amounts of data and are relatively inexpensive compared to other storage solutions.
The DW085-60010 HP 200/400GB Ultrium 448 LTO-2 SAS Internal HH Tape Drive is a tape drive that is designed to be installed internally in a server or storage system. It is a half-height (HH) tape drive, which means that it takes up less space than a full-height tape drive. This tape drive uses the Ultrium 448 LTO-2 standard, which is a high-capacity tape storage technology developed by Hewlett-Packard (HP).
Capacity and Speed
The DW085-60010 HP 200/400GB Ultrium 448 LTO-2 SAS Internal HH Tape Drive has a maximum native capacity of 200GB and a maximum compressed capacity of 400GB. The actual capacity of the tape drive may vary depending on the type of data being stored and the compression ratio used. The Ultrium 448 LTO-2 standard also provides fast data transfer rates, with a maximum native transfer rate of 48MB/s and a maximum compressed transfer rate of 96MB/s.
Interface
This tape drive uses a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface, which is a high-speed data transfer technology that allows for fast and reliable data transfer between the tape drive and the server or storage system. SAS is a popular interface technology for storage devices because it is designed to be compatible with both SCSI and SATA interfaces.
Compatibility
The DW085-60010 HP 200/400GB Ultrium 448 LTO-2 SAS Internal HH Tape Drive is compatible with a wide range of operating systems and backup software applications. It is designed to work with HP ProLiant servers and HP StorageWorks tape libraries, as well as other third-party storage systems.
