StorageWorks TKZ9E 8 mm Helical Scan Tape Drive
The TKZ9E is an industry-standard 8 mm helical scan tape drive which supports 2.3, 5.0, 7.0, 10.0 and 14.0 GB modes.
Push buttons on front panel allow user to select a range of densities and compression modes, to ensure compatibility with
previous DIGITAL 8 mm tape drives, such as the TKZ08, TLZ08, TKZ09, TKZ15, and Exabyte EXB8200/8500/8505-
based tape drives.
The display panel, with two numeric/alphanumeric LED displays and eleven LED indicators, provides valuable operator
information on the quality of the tape being used, how much tape is left on cartridge, and whether loaded tape cartridge
was written in compressed mode. Both tabletop and StorageWorks system building block variants are available.
