Flexible interfaces

Shorten backup and recovery windows

You choose the model that's right for your operating environment, application, capacity point, and performance needs. The Fibre Channel interface available in automation products enables you to connect to new or existing SANs.


Compliance-friendly

Increase compatibility

The SDLT drive is a perfect fit for disk-to-disk-to-tape (D2D2T) architectures and situations where economical storage density is a priority. DLTSage WORM (write once, read many) technology supports your security and compliance initiatives. Standard media can be used for both WORM and non-WORM applications, so you can simplify planning and carry out compliance or security initiatives, even on the fly.

Technical compatibility

The SDLT drive is available in both desktop and rackmount standalone configurations, as well as in StorageTek tape automation platforms. They are compatible with leading backup and management software.
