The HP SureStore DLT 70i, part number C5657A#ABB, is a robust and durable tape drive designed for data backup and archival purposes. It utilises the DLT (Digital Linear Tape) format, renowned for its high reliability and long-term data storage capabilities. This particular model supports DLT Type IV tapes, which allow for efficient storage of large amounts of data. When using these tapes, the DLT 70i can handle up to 40 GB of uncompressed data or 80 GB using data compression technology.
This tape drive operates using a SCSI interface (Small Computer System Interface), making it compatible with a variety of systems that continue to use this reliable and widely-adopted connectivity standard. The SCSI-2 connection ensures high-speed data transfer rates, contributing to the drive’s overall efficiency in high-demand backup environments. It delivers a data transfer rate of 5 MB per second uncompressed, which can reach up to 10 MB per second with compression.
The HP SureStore DLT 70i features a half-height 5.25-inch form factor, allowing it to be installed in standard server racks or desktop systems with 5.25-inch drive bays. This makes it suitable for integration into a wide range of professional IT infrastructures. The device is designed with long archival lifespans in mind, meaning it's ideal for business-critical operations requiring secure data retention across multiple years.
