Product Description
The HP 693413-001 is an internal Storageworks DAT 160 tape drive, a reliable solution for small to medium-sized businesses requiring dependable data backup and recovery. This drive utilizes the Digital Data Storage (DDS) or Digital Audio Tape (DAT) format, specifically the DAT 160 generation, which offers a native capacity of 80GB and a compressed capacity of up to 160GB per cartridge. This makes it suitable for backing up the data volumes typically found in departmental servers or workstations. The drive connects to the server via a SCSI LVD or SAS interface, ensuring a stable and reasonably fast connection for backup operations. While its native transfer rate of around 6 MB/s is modest by today's standards, it was competitive for its class and provided a cost-effective way to secure critical data. The half-height 5.25-inch form factor allows it to be installed in standard server drive bays. This DAT 160 tape drive is designed for environments where regular backups are essential for business continuity. It provides a robust and portable medium for storing data offline, protecting against data loss and enabling quick restoration in case of system failures or data corruption. The 693413-001 represents a legacy but still functional solution for data protection needs within its intended market segment.
