The HP C1533A is HP's high performance DAT drive and incorporates the DDS-2
format to give users twice the capacity at almost three times the speed of
previous drives.
Hewlett-Packard designed this mechanism specifically for the computer
environment. The 200,000 hour MTBF is a direct reflection of HP's investment in
the reliability of the tape drive and in our commitment to the security of your
data.The HP C1533A provides leading performance without sacrificing previous DDS
integration investments:
* read/write compatibility with all DDS-2, DDS-DC and DDS format tape drives. *
all existing DDS Media Recognition System (MRS) cartridges and tape lengths are
supported (up to and including DDS-2).
Performance
The HP C1533A is capable of backing-up around 8 Gbytes of data in about two
hours, almost a full hour less than competing DDS-2 products. This leading
performance comes form HP's own VLSI technology, a development resulting in the
fastest DDS controller available today.
Ease of Integration
For most integrators the HP C1533A is a true "plug and play" device. The drive
simplifies the task of integration by providing direct connectivity to a wide
range of system platforms, (including major Unix systems and PC networks), using
a series of configuration switches.
