The HP Trade-Ready Mechanism DDS-3, part number C5740C, is a reliable and efficient tape drive solution designed for digital audio tape (DAT) storage. This specific model supports DDS-3 format, an industry-standard for data storage and backup, allowing for data capacities of up to 24 GB with compression. It is a SCSI-interfaced device, offering solid performance speed and compatibility with a variety of systems that support SCSI connections.
This tape drive is capable of high-speed data transfer rates, with a default transfer rate of 1.1 MB/sec and up to 2.2 MB/sec when using compressed data. The use of the established SCSI interface ensures that the mechanism can readily integrate with older storage environments while still providing efficient backup management.
The HP Trade-Ready Mechanism DDS-3 is built with durability in mind, offering reliability for environments where regular backup tasks are essential. Its compact and functional design allows for easy installation into different setups. It is well-suited to data archiving tasks in both business and industrial usage scenarios. The robust SCSI interface also supports hot-swapping, which makes it adaptable to dynamic environments.
The DAT (Digital Audio Tape) format used in this device enhances accuracy in data storage while conserving space and costs. Additionally, this tape drive supports backward compatibility with earlier DDS formats, meaning it can read and write in DDS-2 and DDS-1 formats, adding further versatility to its potential use cases.
