The HP SureStore DLT 1, part number C7486A, is a digital linear tape (DLT) drive designed to provide reliable, high-capacity data storage and archival. It connects via a SCSI interface, ensuring compatibility with various server systems that utilise this connection. The tape drive supports the DLT tape format, known for its reliability and data retention capabilities, making it useful for long-term data backup in enterprise settings.
One of the key features of the HP SureStore DLT 1 is its ability to store up to 40 GB of native data, and with data compression, this capacity can reach 80 GB. This high storage capacity per tape reduces the number of tapes necessary for backups, thereby making data management more efficient. The drive achieves a maximum data transfer rate of 3 MB per second (native), which can be increased to 6 MB per second with compression enabled. This ensures that data is backed up and restored at a respectable speed, reducing downtime and improving operational efficiency.
Thanks to its DLT format, the HP SureStore DLT 1 boasts a robust error correction mechanism, reducing the likelihood of data corruption. This tape drive also supports various key features such as SCSI-2 Fast/Wide transfer capability, which enhances the speed and reliability of data transmission between the drive and the system it is connected to. The compact design and solid build quality make the SureStore DLT 1 an efficient, durable choice for data storage and retrieval.
