specifications, functional specifications, dimensions, and
weight for the SDLT 600 tape drive.
Maximum Data Transfer Rate
The following table shows the maximum and burst data
transfer rates for the SDLT 600 tape drive.
Configuration
Native
Compressed
*
* The compression rates shown assume an industry standard 2:1 compression ratio.
Actual compression ratios achieved depend on the redundancy of data files being
recorded.
Burst Max
