Natural catastrophes, software malfunctions, unauthorized data access and viruses can affect your priceless organizational data. That is why backup storage has become critical for all types of companies. Digital linear tape (DLT) is the ideal backup media technology for your evolving data protection requirements. SMBs around the world trust DLT tape media format.
Quantum manufactures its products with a focus on quality, performance and robustness. Like all Quantum backup devices, Quantum DLT media products have set new standards for durability, cost effectiveness and performance. Quantum has developed a high-class DLT 8000 drive specifically for the enterprise customers and SMBs. This high performance tape drive uses the DLT-IV backup tape media. Quantum DLT 4 tape can pack 40GB data in native mode.
DLT 8000 drive ensures in-time data availability and provides an exceptional transfer rate of 6 MB/second (native). In compressed mode, the transfer rate accelerates to 12 Mbps. This allows the users to reliably backup higher volumes of information in a reasonable time frame, without compromising results. Quantum DLT-IV tape solution enables the IT managers to perform backup operations with improved reliability. Quantum has introduced SCSI–2 Fast/Wide interface, which facilitates the users to easily connect the DLT 8000 drive to a variety of IT environments.
Cost per GB of Quantum DLT-IV solution is competitive to other backup tape formats. That is why the organizations that have slim IT budgets can trust Quantum DLT-4 tape solution. Quantum DLT-4 tapes are a good choice for offsite storage, as they have the durability to protect the tape cartridge from inadvertent drops and mechanical shocks. A wide range of popular tape media formats are manufactured by Quantum. Some of them are mentioned below:
Quantum SDLT-1 tape

Use of cleaning cartridge is a smart approach, which is the most reliable way to keep the drive in top working condition. Cleaning cartridge removes the dust particles and debris, thus ensuring long term reliability and reduced tape wear and tear. THXHC-02 is the part number of high performance Quantum cleaning cartridge that is ideal for DLT 8000 tape drive.
Quantum DLT 4 tape provides a highly cost-effective migration path to the existing DLT tape customers. Quantum has enhanced the durability of DLT-IV tape media by using the latest MP (metal particle) formulation. New lubricants have been introduced in the tape binder system that contributes to the reduced tape friction and data read/write accuracy. The tape media of Quantum DLT-4 media is composed of uniform magnetic particles that have helped to enhance the tape smoothness and increase the track density.
In order to ensure seamless tape movement, a special tape leader has been embedded in Quantum DLT 4 cartridge. This helps in accurate data tracking and consistent performance. Media life of Quantum DLT-IV cartridge is more than 1 million passes, making it an attractive option for long term data storage.
