Quantum DLT VS80
The Quantum DLT VS80 fills the need for
reliable tape storage in a small package. The DLT VS80 offers the industry's
first half-high, 5.25-inch form factor and offers 40GB of native capacity (80GB
compressed) and a 3MB/second native transfer rate (6MB/second compressed).
Available as an internally configured unit, the DLT VS80 uses the standard
DLTtape IV media, and is backward read compatible with the popular DLT 4000 tape
format.
