E-4 StorageTek T10000 Tape Drive Operator's Guide
The 16 gigabit tape drive interfaces are compatible with 8
Note:
gigabit and 4 gigabit environments.
The actual data rate achieved is a function of the complete
Note:
system, including processor, disk data rate, data block size, data
compressibility, interface, I/O attachments, storage area network
(SAN), and software used. Although the drive has a native data
rate {252 megabytes/second (T10000C or D) or 120
megabytes/second (T10000A or B)}, other components may limit
the actual effective data rate.
