DLTtape technology is already featured in millions of cartridges at enterprise customers of every description. DLTtape is on the move.

Super DLTtape drives and cartridges offer a cost effective high performance back-up system. Value DLTtape drives are compact, affordable half-height products and work with affordable, reliable cartridges, like the Sony DLTtape VS1.

Sony is proud to be the very first media company licensed by Quantum to manufacture the DLTtape VS1 cartridge. IDC estimates that enterprise storage is increasing 87% per year! Sony DLTtape VS1 media can help. Loaded into a Quantum DLT VS160 drive, a single cartridge can hold up to 160 Gigabytes compressed or 80 GB native.

That's plenty of storage for backing up midrange servers - and great news for an era of ever-growing multimedia files. High capacity requires fast transfer.

Sony DLTtape VS1 media keeps your backup windows small with 16 Megabytes per second compressed transfer speed (8 MB/sec native). Today's DLT VS160 drives represent the second generation of the DLTtape Value line, which started with DLT VS80 drives.

Quantum has charted the future to DLT VS320 drives (320 GB compressed) and DLT VS600 drives (600 GB compressed).

This product is compatible with Quantum and Tandberg DLT VS160 drives. For a complete compatibility list please refer to the original manufacturer's web site.
