Exabyte VXA-1
 | 33 GB native capacity |
| 3 MB/sec native transfer rate |
| VXA technology |
VXA tape technology is designed for 100% reliable restore. No
more lost data! VXA's fantastic reliability is built on its patented packet
technology. It's the first tape drive to format data the same way it's done on
the Internet. That's what makes VXA the first really secure way to store,
archive, retrieve, and exchange data.
At 33 GB native, the VXA-1 gives you enough capacity for your multi-gigabyte
workstation or network server, at a cost that won't ruin your budget. Its 3
MB/sec transfer rate means your backups will get done in time. And it's loaded
with high-end features to help you feel safe about your data, like hardware
compression, error correction, and read-after-write.
VXA-1 drives are available with your choice of SCSI, FireWire, or IDE interface.
And VXA is practically plug-and-play with every major operating system,
including Windows, Linux, MacOS, Novell Netware, and most flavors of Unix. And
it's supported by most popular backup applications, like ARCserve, Backup Exec,
Retrospect, and others.

Data Sheet
Exabyte VXAtape™ cartridges are the perfect
complement to VXA™ technology. They provide the necessary features needed for
Exabyte VXA-1 and VXA-2 tape drives, autoloaders, and libraries.
To take advantage of highly advanced VXA technology, you need an equally
advanced data storage media. VXAtape uses Advance Metal Evaporated (AME)
technology developed specifically to deliver the durability and capacity
required for high-performance tape drives. VXAtape AME has significant
advantages over conventional Metal Particle (MP) media.
