StorageWorks SDLT 160/320

The new HP StorageWorks SDLT 160/320 GB Tape Drive extends the advantages of an SDLT-based data protection solution by increasing capacity and performance by 45%. Total costs of ownership are significantly lowered by reducing the number of data cartridges required and by shrinking the backup window for business-critical data. In addition, backward-read compatibility to existing DLT and SDLT-based solutions provides the highest level of investment protection while offering a smooth transition path to new SDLT 160/320-based data protection solutions.

The SDLT 160/320 is an enhanced version of the SDLT 110/220 tape drive offering a 45% increase in native capacity per cartridge (160 GB) and data transfer performance (16 MB/s). The new SDLT 160/320 offers the same backward-read compatibility to current DLT tape drives as the SDLT 110/220, but is also write-compatible with the SDLT 110/220 and utilizes the same SDLT1 media and cleaning cartridge.

  • 160 GB of native storage capacity increases the amount of storage available on each data cartridge
  • 16 MB/s native performance decreases the customer's backup window
  • Standard Ultra II LVD SCSI interface provides compatibility with the HP leading server and storage products
  • Backwards-Read Compatibility with DLT and SDLT drive formats provides investment protection for customers with an install base of DLT and SDLT data protection solutions.

 

HP StorageWorks SDLT 320 Tape Drive The SDLT 320 is the second tape drive released in the SDLT family, offering a 45% increase in native storage capacity and performance as compared to the SDLT 220 tape drive. With its improvements in capacity and performance, the SDLT 320 tape drive is positioned as the fastest and highest capacity tape drive in the mid-range drive segment. Backward read compatible with DLT Type IV media, the SDLT 320 maintains the SDLT compatibility standards introduced on the SDLT 220 while adding read compatibility for media written in the DLT1 and DLT VS 80 format.
  SDLT 320 Tape Drive Customer benefits include:
  • 160 GB per cartridge capacity requires fewer data cartridges for backups, reducing the customers total cost of ownership
  • 57.6 GB/hour performance reduces the customers backup window by 33% or more as compared to other competitive technologies
  • Investment protection through backward-read compatibility with previously written DLT Type IV and SDLT media
  • Increased reliability and performance through technological advances in drive head and media design
  • Reduces dependence on spares inventory with a 24-hour exchange
  • SDLT technology roadmap offers future capacities beyond 1TB per cartridge
