DataByte™ Archival Tape Reader for V Series Hosts DAT Model
· Access data on old tapes and migrate to modern media
· Move away from legacy systems being kept primarily to read old tapes
· Free up physical space and budget for modern technology
· Reduce your media footprint
The DataByte™ Archival Tape Reader (ATR) for DAT is an off-board platform that reads standard Stratus legacy VOS tape formats and transfers them over Ethernet to a V Series VOS host where they can be readily restored using VOS Restore. The ATR for DAT consists of the DataByte™ Tape Processor and DataByte™ DAT Tape Assembly. The ATR reads DAT DDS 2, 3, and 4 tapes. DRA also offers an ATR for DLT which is sold separately. This solution allows Stratus users to move forward with newer technology by eliminating the need for a legacy Stratus system mainly used to read legacy tapes. It also enables them to reduce their media footprint by using ATR to facilitate transferring data from low-capacity legacy tapes to high-capacity SDLT tapes via their Stratus-attached tape drive or an enterprise backup facility. ATR Components The DataByte Tape Processor facilitates connection of the tape drive to the Stratus host and allows for retrieval of archived data. The processor comes in a 2U chassis and connects to the Stratus host via 10/100/1000 Ethernet and to the Tape Assembly via SCSI. The DAT Tape Assembly comes in a 1U chassis and houses the DAT tape drive. The drive reads DAT DDS 2, 3, and 4 tapes. The Assembly attaches to the DataByte Tape Processor via SCSI connection. Product Support DRA products purchased through Stratus are supported jointly by DRA and Stratus.
