With 8 GB capacity and 1,556 kB/s sustained data
transfer rate, with data compression, Sony 7000 series DDS-2 provide
a cost effective option for the entry level requirements of a home/office
or small business application.
Backward compatibility with DDS-1 tape
format
Sony DDS-2 drives are fully read/write compatible
with both DDS-2 and DDS-1 tape formats. Backward compatibility helps
protect your investment in the valuable data you already have stored
on DDS-1 data cartridges, while delivering the increased capacity
and performance of DDS-2 technology.
Patented Super Head Cleaner™ mechanism
reduces periodic cleaning
Head contamination, the single greatest cause
of tape drive failures, is greatly reduced with the use of Sony's
Super Head Cleaner mechanism. This device, built into every Sony
DDS tape drive, automatically cleans the read/write heads after
every 15 minutes of use. Contamination from tape cartridges is kept
to a minimum, reducing the need for period cleaning with your DDS
cleaning cartridge.
Comprehensive warranty, service,

All Sony DDS tape drives come with a limited
warranty of 3 years from date of purchase. The warranty also includes
a 1 year, 24 hour swap program and technical support, including
