Description
The Sun 380-1601-03 is a high-performance LTO-4 SAS tape drive engineered for integration into Sun StorageTek SL24 and SL48 automated tape libraries. This half-height drive leverages the robust LTO (Linear Tape-Open) technology, offering significant advancements in capacity and speed over previous generations. The SAS interface provides a reliable and high-bandwidth connection, ensuring efficient data transfer between the drive and the host system. With a native capacity of 800GB and a compressed capacity of 1.6TB per cartridge, the LTO-4 technology allows for substantial data storage on a single tape, reducing the overall number of media required and simplifying management. The drive's native data transfer rate of up to 120 MB/s (and up to 240 MB/s compressed) significantly shortens backup windows, making it suitable for demanding enterprise backup and archiving environments. Designed as a half-height unit, it fits conveniently into the compact slots within the SL24/SL48 libraries. The inclusion of a caddy facilitates easy installation and replacement of the drive within the library system. The 380-1601-03 is a critical component for organizations seeking reliable, high-capacity, and high-speed data protection solutions, ensuring the security and availability of vital business information.
