DDS-4/DDS-3/DDS-2/DDS (HS-4)

Ceramic Armor Metal Particles
Maxell's patented ceramic coating process acts as a protective armor for the fine metal particles in the magnetic layer of the tape to guard against heat, humidity, abrasion and oxidation. The process is skillfully engineered to achieve the high output, high S/N ratio and low error rate necessary to ensure reliable data storage across a wide range applications.

Low error rate and long archival life.

Advanced cartridge design to ensure contamination-free recording.

Superior data grade tape with a minimal dropout rate.

All 4mm tapes feature Maxell's unique Safe-T-Lock hub-locking mechanism to ensure proper tape tension and prevent misthreading during initial loading.
