What is DDS6 / DAT160?
DAT 160 was launched in June 2007 by HP, stores up to 80 GB uncompressed (160 GB compressed). A major change from the previous generations is the width of the tape. DAT 160 uses 8 mm wide tape in a slightly thicker cartridge while all prior versions use 3.81 mm wide tape. Despite the difference in tape widths, DAT 160 drives can load DAT-72 and DAT-40 (DDS-4) cartridges. Native capacity is 80 GB and native transfer rate was raised to 6.9 MB/s, mostly due to prolonging head/tape contact to 180° (compared to 90° previously). Launch interfaces were Parallel SCSI and USB, with SAS interface released later.
DAT160 tapes balance value and performance with a variety of capacity, performance, and connectivity options. DDS6 tape technology continues to meet the needs of the small and midsize business market for reliable, cost-effective tape backup solution. DDS 6 / DAT 160 the first choice for data protection for many small and medium businesses with low-end and mid-range servers and workstations.
