The DS9000 Series is a complete external tape backup and archiving solution for
network servers and individual workstations.
With a choice of DLT8000 or DLT1 drives, the DS9000 Series delivers up to 80GB
compressed storage capacity per tape. Up to 43GB/hour sustained throughput. And
mission-critical reliability that's been proven in millions of hours of
high-duty cycle operation.
All DS9000D models feature an integrated LCD drive status display that provides
continuous, easy-to-understand information on drive and media status.
