Quantum Dat-160 Technology, A Cost-efficient Tape Media Solution
Modern internet-related applications, large databases and tremendous data growth
have triggered the need for new cost-effective and high speed backup solutions. DAT (digital audio tape) format has become the leading backup tape solution for entry-level servers, workstations and SMBs. DAT, also called DDS, delivers enhanced backup performance. DAT-160 tape, the sixth version of DDS tape, offers 80GB / 160GB capacity. DAT160 is the most economical tape medium for todays competitive business environment.
Quantums backup tape products are robustly engineered to ensure exceptional compatibility and superior storage value at an affordable price. Low cost per GB and longer archival life make Quantum DAT-160 tape the best choice for budget-constrained companies. Quantum DAT-160 tape drives are specifically designed to provide fast media accessibility at a higher speed of 50 GB/hour (compressed). Faster transfer speed of Quantum DAT-160 drives dramatically reduces the time spent on archive and storage operations, thus leading to greater overall efficiency.
Backup storage and archival with Quantum DAT-160 is simple and affordable.
Quantum DAT160 drives are available in both 5.25 and 3.5 inch form factors. Additionally, the drives also feature multiple host interfaces including USB, SAS and SCSI. SAS host interface provides instant connectivity with the advanced systems, and the SCSI 3 Ultra-160 interface helps to satisfy the needs of legacy systems. While the USB interface provides low-cost, plug & play connectivity.
MR-D6MQN-01 is the part number of Quantums DAT160 cartridge. Its robust design and ultra-smooth tape reel helps to optimize the performance and ensure stable transitions with high efficiency and reliability. Quantum DAT160 drives provide superior reliability with an unbeatable MTBF of 125,000 hours.
Two-generation backward media compatibility of Quantum DAT-160 drives secures your investment. Users can perform write and read operations on DDS-4 and DDS-5 (DAT-72) tapes as well. Backward compatibility provides a simple and trouble-free migration path to the existing customers of DDS-5 and DDS-4 tape technology.
