IBM 18P8777: 4mm DAT tape drive, 20/40GB (DDS-4 generation), same function as 19P0798.

The IBM 18P8777 shares its function with the closely related IBM 19P0798: a 4mm DAT tape drive rated at 20GB native and 40GB compressed (DDS-4 generation), used across IBM’s AS/400, iSeries, RS/6000 and pSeries systems of this period for internal backup. DDS-4 was IBM’s standard 4mm format before LTO superseded it, offering roughly double the earlier DDS-3 generation’s capacity on the same cartridge form factor.
