GY8240UWD SONY DTF-2 SCSI TAPE DRIVE Ultra High-Speed Data Recording High Capacity Data Storage Read Compatibility With DTF-1 Powerful Error Correction Excellent Reliability Format: DTF-2 Digital Tape Format Recording Media: 1/2 inch metal particle tape Storage Capacity: Large cassette: 200 GB (formatted, uncompressed; 518 GB compression factor 2.59:1) Small cassette: 60 GB (formatted, uncompressed; 155 GB compression factor 2.59:1). Recording Format: DTF-2 Format Data Transfer Rate: 40 MB/s (Burst), 24 MB/s (Sustained) Bit Error Rate: 1 x 10E-17 bit or less Head Life: Typically greater than 5,000 hours (100% duty cycle). Interface: Ultra Wide Differential SCSI Search Speed: 1.4 GB/sec. Buffer Memory: 64 MB Media: Advanced metal particle 1/2 inch DTF-2 tape cassette: L-cassette GW2-200GL (200 GB) native; S-cassette: GW2-60GS (60 GB) native Power Requirements: 100 to 240 V AC, 50/60 Hz Power Consumption: Less than 300 W Current Consumption: 2.0 to 0.8 A Operating Temperature: 5° to 40° C (41° to 104° F) Operating Humidity: 20 to 80% (non-condensing) Weight: 38lbs., 9 oz. Dimensions: 12 1/2 x 8 3/4 x 19 1/8 inches (excluding protruding parts) Ultra High-Speed Data Recording at 24MB/s: Incorporates years of Sony's advanced magnetic recording technology, providing an extremely high sustained native data rate of 24MB/sec (86GB/hr). Read Compatibility with DTF-1: Can read tapes recorded by a GY-2120 at its transfer rate of 24MB/sec, so users can now access their tape assets in half the time. Powerful Error Correction: Maintains a very low bit error rate of 1 x 10E-17 or less. Excellent Reliability: Incorporates the following features: long-life amorphous read heads, automatic head cleaning system, precision tape transport system mounted on a rugged die-cast chassis, and sophisticated self-diagnostics. Faster Data Access with Sony Tele-File™ System: Sony's unique Tele-File system uses a non-contact type of flash memory in the form of a label attached to a cassette which hold data relating to both tape and system management; the GY-8240 series tape drive uses the data written onto the Tele-File memory to dramatically reduce load and unload times. |
