HP's extensive compatibility testing program assures that HP StorageWorks DAT drives work with leading servers, operating systems,
and backup applications -- and not just those sold by HP. HP DAT drives work seamlessly in many environments, making them
especially suitable if you have a mixed system environment. For the latest list of servers, workstations, operating systems, and backup
software that support HP DAT drives, check the tape backup compatibility pages at:
