Questions about this item

Should I choose the 4 GB native or 8 GB compressed capacity for my DDS-2 drive?

The cartridge stores 4 GB native and up to 8 GB with 2:1 hardware compression; pick the higher figure only if your backup software enables compression.

What does the 4/8 GB rating mean when the tape is in a DDS-2 drive?

In a DDS-2 drive you get 4 GB of raw data; the 8 GB figure is reached only when the drive's compression engine compresses the stream by roughly two to one.

Does the DDS-2 interface limit the 4/8 GB capacity in any way?

The DDS-2 format defines the 4 GB native and 8 GB compressed limits; the tape cannot exceed those capacities regardless of the host interface used.
