Description
Performance and data transfer Rates
The EH853A HP 800/1600GB Storageworks LTO 4 Ultrium 1840 LVD SCSI Tape Drive is a high-performance tape drive that is designed for use in data center environments. It is capable of providing data transfer rates of up to 440MB/s, which is significantly faster than previous LTO tape drives. This means that large amounts of data can be quickly and efficiently transferred to and from the tape drive, making it ideal for use in backup and archiving applications.
In addition to its high data transfer rates, the EH853A also offers a large storage capacity of up to 800GB (native) or 1600GB (compressed), which allows for the storage of large amounts of data on a single tape. This makes it ideal for use in applications where a large amount of data needs to be stored and retrieved quickly and efficiently.
The EH853A also features LVD (Low Voltage Differential) SCSI connectivity, which provides improved performance and reliability over other types of SCSI connections. This ensures that data is transferred quickly and reliably, even in high-traffic data center environments.
Reliability and durability Features
The EH853A HP 800/1600GB Storageworks LTO 4 Ultrium 1840 LVD SCSI Tape Drive is a high-performance tape drive that offers reliability and durability features to ensure the safe and efficient storage of data.
Reliability features include:
- Advanced data compression technology that increases storage capacity and reduces the risk of data loss
- Advanced error correction and data recovery capabilities to ensure data integrity
- A robust design that is built to withstand harsh environments and prevent data loss due to physical damage
Durability features include:
- A durable metal housing that protects the tape drive from external damage
- A built-in cleaning mechanism that keeps the tape drive free of dust and debris, prolonging its lifespan
- A high-quality tape mechanism that is designed to withstand heavy usage and prolong the lifespan of the tape cartridges
Compatibility and connectivity Options
The EH853A HP 800/1600GB Storageworks LTO 4 Ultrium 1840 LVD SCSI Tape Drive is compatible with a variety of operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and UNIX. It is also compatible with a wide range of servers, workstations, and storage systems.
The drive connects to a host computer or server through an LVD SCSI interface. This interface is an older standard that is not as commonly used as newer interfaces like SAS or FC. However, it is still supported by many older systems and is still a viable option for connecting a tape drive.
The drive also has a variety of connectivity options, including a SCSI terminator, a SCSI cable, and a power cord. These options allow the drive to be connected to a variety of different systems, including servers, workstations, and storage arrays.
