DAT 320 Cartridges Available from Maxell in USA
Maxell Corporation of America announces the availability
of its new DAT 320 data cartridge. This seventh generation Digital Data Storage
(DDS) media has increased storage capacity of up to 320GB with compression and
provides secure data storage for use in the entry-level storage marketplace.
Maintaining the form factor and affordability of previous
DDS media, Maxell's new DAT 320 expands the popular and cost-effective tape
format. In addition to the larger storage capacity, the DAT 320 has a transfer
rate of up to 24MB/sec. It also utilizes a high-performance metal evaporated
tape with superior recording characteristics, such as high output and low error
rate.
Simultaneously, the DAT 320 format features encryption capabilities currently
employed by the LTO Ultrium format, helping protect the storage and transport of
sensitive information. A diamond-like protective layer, along with a strong,
wear-resistant and high-performance lubricant coating, ensure superior tape
durability and excellent reliability.
An effective tool for disaster control,
this removable tape media is available for data backup and exchange. Because it
is compact in size, the DAT 320 can be easily stored locally or offsite as a
disaster countermeasure. It provides lower costs per GB as compared with other
storage media, and is very cost effective in backup operations and maintenance.
The DAT 320 drive is backwards
compatible with DAT 160, allowing small- and medium-size businesses to upgrade
and take advantage of the increased storage capacity, while maintaining access
to previously recorded data. The backwards compatibility also allows for
previous investments in DDS media to be extended into the future by utilizing
the same form factor.
