80 GB External VXA-2 Tape Drive
The 7206-VX2 is a stand-alone, SCSI, VXA-2 streaming tape drive that can be used for save and restore
and archiving functions. The 7206-VX2 writes data to tape using a Discrete Packet Format (VXA
technology based on 8 mm format). The VX2 tape drive provides a media capacity of up to 80 GB (160
GB with 2:1 compression) data storage per cartridge. It has a sustained data transfer rate of up to 6.0
MB per second. VXA-2 is not compatible with previous 8 mm format tape drives.
