The HP Colorado 14GB, part number C4405B, is a tape drive designed around the reliable Travan tape format. With a native capacity of 7GB and a compressed capacity of up to 14GB, it provides an effective storage solution for moderate to larger data backups. The drive employs the IDE interface, ensuring straightforward connectivity with a wide range of systems. This internal tape drive is compatible with desktop PCs using an IDE port and can be slotted directly into a standard 5.25-inch drive bay.
One of the key features of the HP Colorado 14GB is its compatibility with Travan 5 Media, a durable and reliable type of tape cartridge that is well-suited for repeated cycles of backup and data recovery operations. The use of IDE technology means it integrates easily with existing systems, requiring minimal configuration. It supports key backup utilities, making it a suitable option for both small office setups and home office environments that need secure, long-term data storage solutions.
This drive features robust reliability, and the media used can support repeated overwrites due to the nature of Travan technology, providing peace of mind for critical data archiving and restoring. Given its compact form factor and internal installation, it saves considerable space compared to external units, making it an attractive choice for users looking to optimise their workspaces. The Colorado 14GB by HP is a cost-effective, reliable, and competent data storage solution, especially for anyone who needs less frequent backups or a secondary backup system.
