About this guide
NOTE:
DDS/DAT EvolutionII drives, available with USB 2.0, U160 SCSI or SAS1.1 interfaces, are
identifiable by the round LEDs on the front panel, as opposed to rectangular or oval.
USB and SAS drives are only supported on Linux (and Windows).
This guide contains information on connecting to various operating systems. The information is given
in good faith, but since the operating systems and any upgrades that are made to them are outside
Hewlett-Packard’s control, HP cannot guarantee that the details are correct. Please consult the
operating system documentation in conjunction with this guide.
This guide provides basic information on configuring the following drives with various operating
systems:
HP DDS-4 drive, USB and SCSI, capacity 40 GB
HP DAT 72 drive, USB, SCSI and SAS, capacity 72 GB
HP DAT72 autoloader, SCSI, capacity 720 (10x72) GB
HP DAT 160 drive, USB, SCSI and SAS, capacity 160 GB
HP DAT 320 drive, USB, capacity 320 GB
The capacities use hardware data compression with a compression ratio of 2:1.
