l Ultra160 LVD SCSI interface
l Speed matching (The tape drive can slow down to match the system data rate.)
l Sleep mode for energy conservation
l Backward read and write compatibility with Generation 2 cartridges
l Backward read compatibility with Generation 1 cartridges
l Compatible with all cartridges that bear the official Ultrium LTO logo

* Assumes 2:1 compression. The capacity and transfer rate you realize in practice depends on the data set, which affects the actual compression ratio.
** If the drive is in the process of writing host data to the cartridge, the drive will stop accepting data from the host and will automaticllly flush (write) all buffered data
to tape. After cooling down, the drive can resume normal operations.
Tape Backup Software
You need backup software that supports the Dell PowerVault LTO3-060 tape drive. As a general rule, native backup applications (such as NTBackup and tar) do not
provide the required data streaming rate to get the full performance of your tape drive. We recommend using a backup application, which provides better memory
management as well as other useful features, such as TapeAlert. For the latest supported software versions, go to support.dell.com or visit the support site of your
backup software vendor.
