The HP StorageWorks SDLT 600 tape drive, part number A7518B, is a highly reliable data storage solution designed for environments requiring secure and large capacity data backups. This tape drive utilises the Super DLT (Digital Linear Tape) technology, providing enhanced data storage capacity and faster transfer rates compared to its predecessors. With a native storage capacity of 300 GB, which can be increased up to 600 GB with data compression, it is ideal for businesses managing substantial amounts of critical data.
The SDLT 600 model offers a SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) connection, ensuring compatibility with servers and systems that use SCSI protocols for data transfer. This allows for efficient and sustained data movement during backup or restore operations. The SCSI interface is well-known for providing high performance, especially in environments that require fast access to large datasets.
One of the standout features of the HP StorageWorks SDLT 600 is its superior data transfer rate. It can achieve up to 72 MB per second with compression, helping to minimise backup window durations. This speed is particularly beneficial for businesses that require regular, large-scale data backups and need to ensure their backup solution operates efficiently with minimal disruption.
Furthermore, the durability of the Super DLT standard is enhanced by a robust, reliable read/write head and media design. This makes the HP StorageWorks SDLT 600 a suitable option for corporate environments requiring high-duty cycles and careful data retention strategies. Overall, the model A7518B provides a reliable, high-capacity storage option with fast transfer rates on a proven connection interface.
