The IBM 7332 Model 220 4mm DDS-4 Tape Cartridge Autoloader is a multiple cartridge tape autoloader with one 4mm DDS-4 tape drive. It features data compression that provides an effective capacity of up to 240 GB (with 2:1 compression) and a sustained data rate of up to 3.0 MB per second (6.0 MB per second with compression) depending on the characteristics of the data transferred. User productivity is enhanced with a three times larger tape cartridge capacity and higher data rate over the previous 7332 Model 110. The 7332 Model 220 provides a more cost-effective solution for save and restore and archiving functions than previous models.

The two models of the 7332 tape autoloader incorporate increasingly sophisticated technology and higher performance. Both models use proven Digital Audio Tape (DAT) / Digital Data Storage (DDS) tape technologies.

The 7332 Model 220 is a large-capacity 4mm DDS-4 Tape Cartridge Autoloader using DDS technology that features:

• Increased tape storage capacity up to 240 GB (with 2:1 compression) with the 6 cartridge magazine
• Sustained data transfer rate of up to 3.0 MB per second (6.0 MB per second with compression)
• Enhanced reliability over DDS-3 technology
• Ability to read and write DDS-4, DDS-3, and DDS-2 tape cartridges
• External, self-powered packaging
