Compaq StorageWorks TZ88N - tape drive - DLT - SCSI

• Manufacturer: HP
• Part number: TZ88N-AX
• Description: For IS Managers and professionals that are looking for higher capacity, higher performance, and reliable tape backup, Compaq offers the TZ88 DLT tape drive. DLT technology is the de facto tape backup standard in the enterprise environment today, offering a reliable data protection solution for servers with less than 40GB of storage. With a sustained transfer rate of up to 3.0 Mbytes per second and up to 40GB of formatted capacity (2:1 compression), TZ88 tape drives can complete full backups in under an hour. A 2.0 MB adaptive cache matches speed of the tape subsystem to system performance, minimizing repositioning delays, and a dual channel read/write head design provides a high data transfer rate. Extensive error detection and correction make the data integrity of DLT cartridge tape subsystem comparable to that of magnetic disks. Other advanced data integrity features include a custom 64-bit CRC on each 4 KB of data on media, a powerful custom Reed Solomon ECC and parity checking on cache buffer. TZ88 is read/write compatible with the TZ85, TZ86, and TZ87. TZ88 uses DLT/ CompacTape IV media and is read/write compatible with DLT/CompacTape III and DLT/CompacTape III XT media.
