DDS DG4 150, 20 Gb
<b>Major Benefits of the DDS FormatImproved Capacity with Reliability</b>
Fujifilm’s DDS4 offers up to 20GB of uncompressed storage capacity (40GB compressed) in combination with a drive-dependent maximum transfer rate of 3MB/second. The DDS4 is made with a base film which is simultaneously thinner and more resistant to stretching, resulting in increased tape in the cartridge with no loss of durability or reliability, and a refinement of the industry-leading ATOMM technology for even finer particles with higher output allowing increased recording density. A further factor contributing to the DDS4’s reliability is the innovative 4S (Symmetric Slider Spring Structure) which provides smoother movement of the redesigned high-rigidity cartridge’s slider section. Taken together, these innovations create a huge leap forward in backup and long-term archiving.
<b>inimal error rate, higher efficiency</b>
Although 4mm and 8mm systems have error-correction, avoiding errors in the first place is the best solution. An extremely smooth base film and super-calendering techniques give the magnetic layer a mirror finish to reduce the spacing loss that causes errors. Combined with the tapes’ high output (+1.0dB), this results in an extremely low error rate.
<b>ilt tough for a long working life</b>
Fujifilm’s advanced technology builds a long and reliable working life into every one of these data cartridges. The combination of a three-dimensional network structure and optimized lubricating system results in exceptional durability.
<b>th, stable transportBo</b>
Both DDS and D8 data cartridges feature SDR (Super Durability and Runability) APS backcoating with a suitable friction coefficient, assuring smooth transport even with the complex transport modes and mechanisms of these systems. Thanks to their outstanding static resistance, these data cartridges prevent dust accumulation, maintaining their exceptionally low error rate over an extended working life.
Cleaning Cartridge DG-12 CL is also available, suitable for all 4mm DDS drives.
