TSL-9000

Sony proudly introduces its first
DDS-3 Autoloader

SONY TSL-9000
This state-of-the-art device combines 96GB native capacity with unique Sony robotics, to offer unparalleled reliability in the field of non-attended back-up. The TSL-9000 is driven by an SDT-9000 DDS-3 drive, and performs better than those autoloaders relying on a conventional DDS-3 drive. With its carefully selected components that guarantee high rigidity and durability, this new design sets a new standard in autoloader performance.

 
FEATURES
DDS-3 Autoloader with 8 cartridges for a full week's non-attended backup
Full height 5.25 inch design
Typical swap time of 45 seconds
Fast SCSI-2 interface
Unparalleled reliability of cartridge movement through the use of the 'push arm' mechanism
The fastest data transfer to date* thanks to the Sony DDS-3 drive (up to 192GB* compressed storage and 96GB uncompressed storage)
LCD and LED readout positioned at front of unit

*Actual capacity and transfer rate depends on type of data being transferred. Although tests have proved sometypes of data can be compressed up to 4:1, the conservative industry standard 2:1 compression ratio is assumed for comparison.
