Sony 4mm DDS-1 Tape 2.0 GB: DG90P

Long-term archival storage and a low error rate, Sony DDS tapes employ a magnetic material that has outstanding magnetic transfer characteristics. Key to this performance are Sony's ultra-fine particles and anti-oxidation coating, which is comprised of HDA (High-Density Alloy), HESA (High Energy Stabilized Alloy), and MP+++ (Metal Particle). DDS tapes are made with a non-magnetic layer above the base film to enhance the performance of the magnetic layer.

18 Years of Excellence
People have relied on Sony DDS media for 18 years, ever since Sony co-developed and introduced the first DDS data cartridge in 1989. Today, Sony supports those earliest users along with recent adopters with a full range of DDS data cartridges. From 2.6GB to 80GB compressed, Sony DDS media provides versatility, reliability, and durability for a wide range of applications.

Performance and Reliability – Powered by Sony Technology
Sony’s large base of DDS users expects performance and reliability. These qualities are engineered into every DDS cartridge Sony makes. In the tape design, the HCL (High Cross Linkage) binder allows the tape to withstand the stresses of repeated use and the RDP mechanism supports smooth tape winding by sandwiching the tape between textured sheets. In the cartridge design, Sony chose a plastic for the cartridge lid that could protect the tape against accidental drops and Sony designed a unique hub, sheet, and shell to minimize torque and enhance durability.

Ensured Compatibility
Sony has conducted extensive testing to ensure compatibility with all available DDS drives. Sony’s DDS cartridges have also been tested and certified by Hewlett-Packard (HP) for use in their systems.
