TDK 4MM 150M DDS4 Data Cartridge
TDK's new DDS-4 data cartridge is an ultra-high-densitycartridge optimized for use in the newest Digital Data Storage drivesThe cartridge achieves an ultra-reliable native storage capacity of 20GB (40GB compressed)The increase in capacity over existing helical-scan DDS formats is made possible by reducing track pitch from 9.1 to 6.8 microns and increasing cartridge tape length to 150 metersThe DDS-4 cartridge is specifically engineered to take full advantage of the DDS-4 format, with a higher coercivity MP Metal Particle tape formulation and 3DC binder system, which creates an extremely strong three-dimensional web surrounding each pure-metal MP particle on the recording layerThe rugged, web-like structure ensures that magnetic particles are firmly anchored, densely packed and uniformly dispersed on the tape surfaceThis DDS data cartridge features a robust native capacity with fast data transfer rates. Precision-engineered cartridge ensures a stable tape run and superior file integrity
