Built with the same advanced linear recording technology, precision tape guiding system, and adaptive control mechanism proven successful in previous generations of DLT tape drives, the DLT 7000 was the first to employ the innovative Symmetric Phase Recording Technique and the four channel recording system.

An ideal choice for intense data backup, archiving and near-online storage applications for mid-range computers, network servers, high end workstations and mainframe environments running Windows® NT, NetWare®, UNIX or proprietary operating systems. The Quantum DLT 7000 is available now from CPU, Inc.
