The SDT-S9000/BM and SDT-9000/BM are the ideal solutions for data backup and recovery in larger local area networks. The 9000 series DDS-3 DAT Drive sets the pace. Typically sixty percent faster than other DDS-2 DAT Drives, the 9000 series DAT drive moves data at 2.4 MB/sec via a fast SCSI-2 interface. It has a 24 GB capacity, is fully compatible with DDS-1, DDS-2, and DDS-3 cartridges and supports Cheyenne, Dantz, Legato, Seagate and other backup software.

The 9000 series has also earned an MTBF rating of 200,000 power-on hours and employs Sony's patented Super Head Cleaner mechanism for reliability and
ease of maintenance.

          Features

• Includes one 125m Data Media Cartridge for a complete backup solution, providing ease of operation for the Network Administrator.
• 24 GB data storage capacity (with hardware data compression) to handle larger LAN systems. Excellent price/performance model.
• Typically 60% faster than other DDS-2 drives based on published specifications. Allows for increased productivity at the network administrator's level.
