Storage firm Quantum Corp introduced DLT-S4, a tape drive with 1.6 terabytes per cartridge (compressed).

The fourth generation in Quantum's performance line of DLT-S tape drives (formerly named SDLTTM), the DLT-S4 helps overtaxed storage networks grapple with growing volumes of data. "While implementing tiered storage architectures as part of their broader information lifecycle management strategies has quickly become a reality for many enterprises, they are still struggling with a key issue: the need for greater capacity and functionality with no increase in budget," said Mr Rob Pickell, vice president of worldwide marketing for Quantum. "DLT-S4 is engineered to deliver the capacity that tiered storage architectures demand."

DLT-S4 is currently available, as both a standalone tape drive and for Quantum's PX720 enterprise tape library. Standalone tape drive pricing is estimated to start at $4,495 and a single DLT tape S4 cartridge costs about $100.
