Share

Company and client data is the lifeblood of today’s businesses. That’s why millions of data center managers, IT professionals and computer users look to Imation for the proven quality, reliability and performance they need to reliably manage, store and secure their valuable information.

Imation brings over 50 years of tape media experience and established technology to its 4mm DDS and DAT Tape Cartridge line of products. This longstanding commitment to reliability and data protection ensures you can back up, restore, archive, copy, distribute, or manage your data with confidence when you use Imation 4mm DDS and DAT Tape Cartridges.

To address the needs of small business users, the Imation DAT 72 Cartridge continues the legacy of the 4MM DDS format by providing users with 72 GB (36 GB native) capacity with a transfer rate of 3MB/second.

With Imation 4mm DDS and DAT Tape Cartridges, your data works harder and rests easier.

Imation Data Grade Tape Cartridges feature a protective backcoating that:

•    Minimizes damaging effects of compression to the recording surface
•    Dissipates harmful static buildup
•    Reduces tape slippage to help ensure uniform signal output
•    Protects data against effects of wound-in debris
•    Improves tape winding and stacking

For optimum tape drive performance use Imation 4mm Head Cleaning Cartridges. Dirt, dust and other microparticles constantly circulate around us, and they can settle inside your tape drive as well. If there is debris between the drive’s read/write heads and their contact with the tape, permanent data loss—or even damage to the read/write heads themselves—can result.
