The SDT-S7000/M and SDT-7000/BM are the ideal solutions for data backup and recovery in larger local area networks. The 7000 series DDS-2 DAT Drive sets the pace. 50% faster than any other DDS-2 DAT Drive, the 7000 series DAT drive moves data at 1.5 MB/sec via a fast SCSI-2 interface. It has an 8 GB capacity, is fully compatible with DDS-1 and DDS-2 cartridges and supports Cheyenne, Dantz, Legato, Seagate and other backup software.

The 7000 series has also earned an MTBF rating of 200,000 power-on hours and employs Sony's patented Super Head Cleaner technology for proven
reliability and ease of maintenance.

Features

• 8 GB data storage capacity (with hardware data compression) to handle larger LAN systems. Excellent price/performance model.
• Typically 50% faster than other DDS-2 drives based on published specifications. Allows for increased productivity at the network administrator's level.
• Read and write capability - can back up 1 GB of information in 11 minutes* thereby increasing workers' productivity, saving time and money for the organization.
• Incorporates Sony's patented Super Head Cleaner technology and read- after-write verification to enhance data integrity and drive reliability.
• Roller guide tape path for gentle tape handling extends the life of the tape and reduces cost of ownership.

     * Rates reflect hardware data compression (2:1) and may vary depending upon the system configuration.
