Advanced tape technology
The IBM Enhanced Capacity Cartridge
System Tape continues the IBM tradition of
innovative tape technology by doubling
the capacity of the Cartridge System Tape.
When used with the IBM 3490 Magnetic
Tape Subsystem and other compatible
models, this cartridge can increase the
capacity—depending on data character-
istics—by an average of 12 times when
compared to uncompacted, original 3480
tape cartridges.
Advanced tape benefits
The primary benefits of the IBM En-
hanced Capacity Cartridge System Tape
are operational and space savings since
a typical disk volume can be backed up
on a single cartridge. In fact, using the
Enhanced Capacity Cartridge in the
3490 and other compatible models
provides an unattended disk backup
capacity of 2.4 GB (based on a 3:1
compaction ratio).
Reducing the number of cartridges
required for backup and restore
operations can result in fewer cartridges
to handle and less tapes in the tape
library—simplifying overall operations
and saving time, effort, and money.
