IBM T200F manual Ultrium Internal Tape Drives feature

Designed to perform unattended backups as well as to retrieve and archive files,

the Ultrium Internal Tape Drives feature:

v Native storage capacity of 100 GB per cartridge (200 GB at 2:1 compression)1

v Native sustained data transfer rate of 15 MB per second (30 MB at 2:1

compression)2

v RS-422 interface for enhanced performance in automated tape libraries.

The Ultrium Internal Tape Drive Model T200 uses an Ultra2 SCSI Low Voltage

Differential/Single Ended (LVD/SE) interface. It features a burst data transfer rate of

80 MB per second.

The Ultrium Internal Tape Drive Model T200F uses a Fibre Channel interface with a

components.

The 3580 Ultrium Tape Drive is available in two models. The models vary according to the type of SCSI interface that each uses to communicate with the server:

vModel L11 uses the Ultra2, Low Voltage Differential/Single Ended (LVD/SE) interface. It has a burst data transfer rate of 80 MB per second.

vModel H11 uses the Ultra, High Voltage Differential (HVD) interface. It has a burst data transfer rate of 40 MB per second.

1.1 GB = one gigabyte or 1 000 000 000 bytes

2.1 MB = one megabyte or 1 000 000 bytes
