C5739A

The HP Trade-Ready Mechanism DDS-2 (part number C5739A) is a high-performance DAT tape drive designed for use in environments requiring reliable data backup and storage solutions. This drive utilises the DDS-2 (Digital Data Storage) format, which allows it to store up to 8GB of uncompressed data or 16GB with data compression. Its tape format offers robust data protection and durability, making it suitable for both medium-sized businesses and enterprise-grade solutions.

Featuring a half-height form factor, the HP C5739A fits seamlessly into a wide variety of systems that support internal tape drives. The drive connects via the SCSI interface, providing fast and reliable data transfers. Thanks to its 4 MB/s transfer rate (with compression), it efficiently handles heavy-duty backup tasks. Additionally, the reliable DAT (Digital Audio Tape) technology used in this device ensures data integrity even after extended storage periods.

The HP C5739A tape drive is backward-compatible, being able to read and write DSS and DSS-1 tapes, making it ideal if you need to handle legacy media alongside newer types. The drive is designed for durability and long-term usage, providing several million passes per tape. This ensures that it remains fully functional even in demanding usage environments. Additionally, the unit's dependable error correction and fault tolerance features further ensure secure data backups.
