The Tandberg DLT8000 tape system is a high-performance, high-capacity,
streaming cartridge tape product designed for efficient data back-up for midrange
and high-end computing systems. With Tandberg Data’s DLT advanced linear
recording technology, a highly accurate tape guide system, and an adaptive control
mechanism, the system is ideally suited for mid-range systems, network servers,
and high-end workstations and systems.
Using data compression and compaction, the DLT8000 tape system features a
formatted capacity of 80.0 GB* and a sustained user data transfer rate of up to 12
MB/second* (native capacity is 40.0 GB; native data transfer rate is 6.0
MB/second).
The device is an extended-length, 5.25 inch form factor, half-inch tape system. The
design includes a four channel read/write head, Lempel-Ziv (LZ) high-efficiency
data compression, and tape mark directory to maximize data throughput and
minimize data access time.
The tape system is available either as an integrated or “embedded” drive or as a
tabletop version. The tabletop version is packaged in a housing and includes its
own cooling fan and power supply, requiring ac power.
