Quantum DLT VS160

Overview
The Quantum DLT VS160 is an extension to the DLT
data protection family that pushes all of the smart options that
users have come to expect - reliability, value, and space efficiency,
making it the performance offering for value servers and the value
offering for performance servers.
The DLT VS160 fills the need for enterprise-class
capacity and throughput in a value-priced solution. It features
a half-high form factor and offers 80GB of native capacity (160GB
compressed) and an 8MB/second native transfer rate (16MB/second
compressed). Available as an internally configured unit or as a
self-standing enclosed unit, the DLT VS160 uses DLTtape VS1 media,
offering, increasing capacity-value with enhanced reliability and
durability, all at an industry-leading cost per GB.
