Note that a compression factor of as high as 2:1 can be attained, depending on the data type and subject to the limitations of the SCSI bus design and the configuration of the system in which the tape drive is installed.

1.3.4Reliability (Projected)

Mean time between failures (MTBF) for the tape drive is projected to be 200,000 hours at 100% duty cycle. Head life is 30,000 tape motion hours.

Media durability is projected to be 1,000,000 passes of the tape medium across the read/write heads (15,000 uses).

Quantum Corporation does not warrant that predicted MTBF is representative of any particular unit installed for customer use. Actual figures vary from unit to unit.
