Gotcha:
- DDS has the same cassette and same/similar tape as DAT
- Data8 has the same cassette and same/similar tape as 8-mm video, but cannot record or play video.
- No DV cassettes - mini, medium or large - have been used as data storage.
What do you make of this picture. Clearly, this is not a data storage tape transport, this is a PC-based editing suite with a DVCPRO deck integrated into a desktop PC. I've never seen these in the wild. Have Panasonic went through with this idea? I suppose if these became a reality, they potentially could be have been used as data streamers.
