The VXA-2 tape drive provides 160GB of data storage. VXA-2 is the second-generation drive based on the award winning VXA packet technology and is quickly becoming the standard for DDS replacement. VXA-2 is fully compatible with all VXA drives, media, and automation products currently available from IBM, Compaq, Apple, Fujitsu, Toshiba and others. What's making VXA so popular? VXA-2 delivers 4x more capacity and 2x more speed than DDS-4 at a similar price. It's the only tape drive that allows DDS users to migrate to a higher capacity, higher performance tape backup product at the same cost to which they are accustomed. If you want to take that first step into automation and start enjoying the benefits of unattended backup, check out Exabyte's cost-effective line of VXA automation products. It's a simple choice, when you need the security of a standard and the capacity for your storage growth, at a price that's below your budget - you need VXA.
