The HP Smart Storage DDS-4 (Part Number: C6371A) is a reliable and high-performance tape drive solution designed to meet your data storage requirements. This particular drive operates with the Digital Audio Tape (DAT) standard, which is well-known for its durability and data longevity. It utilises SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) connectivity, offering compatibility with a vast range of servers and systems that support this interface type.
This DDS-4 model is engineered to provide an efficient method for backing up and archiving critical business information. It supports a storage capacity of 20 GB in native mode and up to 40 GB in compressed mode, thanks to its capabilities with data compression technologies that help optimise available space. In terms of performance, the HP C6371A offers a 4 MB buffer size that ensures quick and effective data handling, reducing potential backup time.
The drive is designed for reliability and long-term durability. While it physically conforms to a compact and manageable size, the rugged build quality ensures that it can withstand regular usage over time. The SCSI interface also provides fast data transfer speeds, maximising performance in busy IT environments where consistent uptime is crucial. Additionally, the HP DDS-4 drive offers backward compatibility with previous generations of DAT technologies, meaning it can read and write to older DDS-3 tapes, providing flexibility in mixed media environments.
