***Capacities and transfer rates assume 2:1 data compression. Actual compression may differ because compression varies with data type. ***DAT 40 provides HPs One Button Disaster Recovery when backing up and restoring on HP Netservers. For information on additional hardware support see www.hp.com/go/connect ***System matching warranty provides coverage that matches that of the server if the drive is included in a bundle. If the drive is added on, the warranty matches the remainder of the server warranty, then the balance of the 3-year unit exchange warranty is used. If the server contract is in force, that warranty would apply.
