The SuperLoader 3 with DLT-V4 will offer, key features of DLTSage, including: advanced diagnostics and manageability; Write Once Read Many (WORM) capability for regulatory compliance; and DLTSage Tape Security to prevent unauthorized access to data on tape cartridges, especially those that must be transported offsite.
