Quantum DLT VS80

Overview
The Quantum DLT VS80 fills the need for reliable
tape storage in a small package. The DLT VS80 offers the industry's
first half-high, 5.25-inch form factor and offers 40GB of native
capacity (80GB compressed) and a 3MB/second native transfer rate
(6MB/second compressed). Available as an internally configured unit,
the DLT VS80 uses the standard DLTtape IV media, and is backward
read compatible with the popular DLT 4000 tape format.
