SDLT Technology
DLT (digital linear tape) uses a proven linear recording technology, a highly accurate tape guide system,
and a read after write correction system to provide high-capacity, high reliability data backup and
restoration. DLT has fast become the industry-standard secondary storage tape format for departmental
and enterprise backup. The new generation SDLT drive, provides enhanced capacity and backup
performance and includes several new features such as laser guided magnetic recoding (LGMR)
technology, pivoting optical servo (POS), magneto-resistive cluster heads (MRC), partial response
maximum likelihood (PRML) channel technology and backward-read compatibility with earlier
generations of DLT drives (to be able to read media written in DLT type IV format).

The HP StorageWorks SDLT600 Tape Drive includes support for WORM (Write-Once, Read-Many)
functionality. WORM implementation is dependent on the backup application and more information on
which applications support WORM can be found at

.
WORM technology provides an enhanced level of security against accidental or malicious alteration of
data on tape cartridges. WORM can be important when implementing data retention policies to be
compliant with regulations regarding the storage of data on non-rewritable, non-erasable media. The
SDLT600 tape drive ships with support for WORM and can be set to WORM mode using the backup
application. Once the cartridge has been set up for WORM, you will be unable to erase or overwrite the
data on it, although you will be able to append data until the cartridge is full. WORM media can be
read as often as required. When implementing WORM an unformatted or blank Super DLTtape II
600GB data cartridge is required.

HP recommends that you use HP-branded cartridges in the MSL6000 Tape Library to assure the highest
level of protection for your valuable data. The test program for HP media is the most thorough and
comprehensive in the industry.
All HP cartridges must satisfy an exhaustive battery of additional tests that relate directly to real life
situations, where real data and real businesses are at stake. The benefit of the HP brand specification for
media is consistent quality. Through the testing of thousands of HP drives and HP cartridges, the ideal
formulation for backup performance is defined and then continuously monitored. This hugely resource-
intensive process is unique to HP and affords deep insight into the HP+HP backup solution for a wide
range of environments and duty cycles. Your best choice for ease of support and maximum dependability
is to use HP-branded Ultrium cartridges at all times.
