HP DW016A Overview
The HP DW016A StorageWorks Ultrium 448 Tape Drive represents HP's second generation of half-height LTO tape drive technology. Positioned as the highest capacity half-height tape drive in the HP StorageWorks family, the Ultrium 448 Tape Drive delivers a compressed storage capacity of 400GB per data cartridge using LTO 2 media. By doubling the capacity of the current half-height HP Ultrium 232 Tape Drive, HP customers now require fewer data cartridges to meet their storage needs, significantly reducing their IT costs and increasing their return on investment. The HP DW016A Ultrium 448 Tape Drive is fully read and write compatible with all first and second-generation Ultrium drives and media.

The HP DW016A Ultrium 448 Tape Drive supports the industry's most comprehensive list of compatible hardware and software platforms, including support for both HP and non-HP servers and workstations. Multiple drive models are available for the Ultrium 448 Tape Drive including internal drives, external (tabletop) drives, array modules for the HP StorageWorks Tape Array 5300, and a 1U preconfigured rack-mount model. Each HP DW016A drive model includes a single HP Ultrium 400 GB data cartridge as well as all required mounting and cabling hardware for integration into HP servers. As is standard with all HP tape drives, HP StorageWorks Data Protector Express Single Server Edition backup/recovery software and the HP StorageWorks Data Protector Express Bare Metal Disaster Recovery option is included with each drive model, as well as support for HP StorageWorks One-Button Disaster Recovery (OBDR) and HP StorageWorks Library and Tape Tools (L&TT). These features combined with low pricing make the Ultrium 448 Tape Drive the ideal direct-attach and network backup solution for entry-level and midrange servers where capacity and low cost of ownership are critical. RICOM sells refurbished HP DW016A tape drives.
