DLT has a long history, but then it is built to last. With a half-inch surface area and a tape length of up to 1,800 feet, DLT combines high capacity and long life. A single cartridge is good for 1 million passes across a tape head, and can last for up to 30 years in storage. With more than a million drives in service, Quantum has cornered the high-capacity backup market. Next year will bring huge changes as Quantum squares off against the Linear Tape-Open (LTO) partnership of Hewlett-Packard Co., IBM Corp. and Seagate. The format promises 100 GB per tape and transfer rates between 20 MB per second and 40 MB per second. Quantum's Super DLT format will hit the 100 GB mark, but transfer rates will start at 10 MB per second. Super DLT's backward compatibility with DLT will strengthen its position in the battle with the upstart LTO. techreviews.com
