Latest Open Standard technology and a strategic IBM platform
Cost effective solution for high capacity and fast tape storage
The 3583 and 3584 are modular and expandable
Enables larger-capacity or higher-performance tape backup
Better alternative product to other externally attached Digital Linear Tape,
¼-inch, 4 mm, or 8 mm tape
