DAT 72 (Fifth generation DDS Tape Technology)
Fifth generation tape drive technology uses the helical scan format. Data is written and recorded in groups, where each group is a logical collection of data records physically recorded as 22 frames, each frame containing 2 tracks. The DAT 72 format is a semi-open format and data written on any HP StorageWorks DAT 72 tape drive may be interchanged directly with DAT 72 tape drives from other vendors.
Backwards Compatibility |
DAT 72 tape drives are fully read and write backwards compatible with all DDS-3 and DDS-4 products from all |
|
licensed manufacturers. |
|
|
High Reliability |
HP's DDS tape technology has proven itself during more than 12 years of use as one of the most reliable tape |
|
technologies on the market today. DAT 72 builds on the strengths and successes of previous generations of |
|
DDS drives. The HP StorageWorks DAT 72 tape drive has a mean time between failure (MTBF) rating of 400,000 |
|
hours at a 12% percent duty cycle, making it an ideal choice for small and medium businesses. |
|
|
Compression |
The HP StorageWorks DAT 72 tape drive as per previous generations of DDS uses the ‘DCLZ’ data compression |
|
algorithm. Data compression is host selectable with the default that compression is turned on. |
|
|
Compatibility Testing |
The HP StorageWorks DAT 72 tape drive for ProLiant is fully supported and compatible with HP ProLiant servers, |
|
AlphaServers and host bus adapters. This tape drive is thoroughly tested with other major brands of server, |
|
leading software and operating systems. The compatibility matrix shown below gives a more comprehensive |
|
listing of all hardware and software supported. |
|
|
Rackmount |
All HP DDS tape products have variants that enable the drive to be fitted into racks. |
|
For compatibility with ProLiant and AlphaServer systems use 3U rackmount kit (P/N 274338-B21) and internal |
|
drive (P/N Q1525A). |
|
For compatibility with HP UNIX systems and to be fitted into HP Tape Array 5300 (P/N C7508A) use Array Module |
|
(P/N Q1524. Order option #OD1 for Factory fitted option). |
|
|
HP DDS Storage Media |
HP’s test program for HP DAT 72 media is probably the most thorough and comprehensive in the industry. HP |
|
data cartridges must satisfy an exhaustive battery of additional tests that relate directly to real life situations, |
|
where real data and real businesses are at stake. Over 1 million test hours on media and drives per year ensure |
|
that HP data cartridges will always offer maximum reliability even in the most extreme conditions. HP |
|
recommends that customers always use HP branded media to ensure stress free backup and complete peace of |
|
mind. |
