Okay all you curious people, here's the scoop on DC2000 and DC2120 (and others) differences: tape uncompressed Recording max tape length capacity Format Density # speed (ft) (MB) Standard (FTPI) Tracks (ips) DC300XLP 450 4.3-45 QIC24 10,000 4-9 90 DC600A 620 60,125 QIC24, 120 12,500 9-15 90 DC6150 620 125,150 QIC120, 150 12,500 15,18,32 120 DC6250 1020 208,250 QIC120, 150 12,500 15,18,32 120 DC2000 205 20,40,64 QIC 40, 100; 12,500 14,20,24 90 Irwin 20,40,64 DC2120 307.5 120 QIC80; Irwin 80 12,500 28,32 90 So as you can see, the advantage that DC2120 has is longer length tapes and more tracks. Gee, I hope this settles it. -- Timothy Hu timhu@ico.isc.com | The intelligence (or lack of) expressed Interactive Systems Corporation | above does not necessarily reflect the Resource Solutions International | that of anyone else.
