DLT TAPE
Chosen for mission critical systems in U.S. government agencies and the financial industry, DLT tape drives are widely used for rapid backup of network server and workstation data. Also ideal for data-intensive multimedia applications such as DVD mastering, this format offers massive capacity, extremely fast transfer speed, and quick file access. One reason DLT tape is recommended for mission-critical data backup applications is its ultra-low bit error rate of 1~10-17.
The latest binder system helps achieve 1,000,000-pass durability for longer lasting tape as well as reduced wear on the heads. Also contributing to extended media life are the DLT tape drive's precision tape tension servo control and gentle tape path in which only the back of the tape touches any guide rollers.
DLT drives run tape past a stationary head while multiple channels read/record simultaneously, using up to four read/write elements in the head -- effectively doubling the transfer rate possible at a given drive speed and recording density. This is particularly useful for use in high-speed network environments where massive amounts of data must be stored quickly.
Prior to implementing a DLT ape solution, managers should evaluate a number of key issues such as how much data is to be backed up and how much time is available to perform the backup. They should also consider what infrastructure bottlenecks may have to be tuned to maximize data transfer to the DLT tape drives.
