Benchmark Tape Systems - DLT1 40/80Gb Tape Drive
The Quantum sanctioned Benchmark Tape Systems provides a reliable tape solution that safely manages and preserves valuable corporate data.   The first of Benchmark's drive family, the DLT1, provides a 40GB native capacity (80GB compressed) and a 3MB/second native transfer rate (6MB/second compressed), providing enterprise reliability and performance at low-end server pricing.  The Benchmark DLT1 drive is packaged in a standard 5 ¼" form factor and is available as an internally configured unit (bare drive or kit) or as a self-standing enclosed unit.  To increase your reliability and compatibility even more, Benchmark's DLT1 uses standard DLTtapeIV media, and the DLT1 has the added advantage of being compatible with DLT4000 tape drive.  It's ability to 'backwards' read data from cartridges written by  a DLT4000 drive, gives users access to their old DLT backups.
The DLT1 offers around twice the capacity and performance of a Quantum DLT 4000 tape drive at around the same purchase price.  The DLT1 format is well supported by leading software vendors such as Computer Associates and Veritas.
