HP Colorado 8GB

HP Colorado 8GB ... you're one of those people who don't think they need to backup their data. Consider this: you installed CakeWalk a few months ago. Since then, you have recorded about two dozen original songs. Today when you log onto your computer, you receive a Drive Not Found error. Uh-oh. This isn't good. This is where Hewlett Packard's HP Colorado 8GB external tape drive comes in. If you had performed regular backups with your HP tape drive, recovering those songs would not be a problem. The HP Colorado allows you to backup up to 8GB of data on a single cartridge using software data compression. No hassles, no worries.

The HP Colorado backs up about 3.6GB of data per hour using simple One-Button backup. You can configure your tape drive to perform daily backups with the Automated Daily Backup utility and use the Scheduler to designate what time of day or night the backup is performed. The HP Colorado also features a Tape Librarian to quickly locate a desired file. Its powerful disaster recovery restores your PC to the way it was without having to reinstall or reconfigure Windows 95. The external HP Colorado attaches to your computer via the parallel port and features a lightweight and portable design, ideal for sharing among several PCs or notebook computers. It reads and writes to HP Colorado 8GB, 5GB, T4000 and HP Surestore T4 data cartridges and reads to QIC-80, QIC-3010, QIC-3020, TR-1 and TR-3 data cartridges with Colorado Backup for Windows 95 3.0 or higher. The HP Colorado offers reliable PC backup at an affordable price. Hewlett Packard states the reliability of the HP Colorado at 250,000 hours MTBF.
