- Large-capacity drive capable of storing compressed storage on a single cartridge, requiring fewer data cartridges to meet storage needs, significantly reducing IT costs
- AES 256 bit data encryption and support for WORM media provide a secure method for long-term retention of critical data records
- Fast data transfer rate up to 280 Mbps (LTO-5) to meet demands of even the tightest backup window
- High capacity combined with low media cost delivers an exceptionally low cost of ownership and ensures a faster return on investment
- HPE's exclusive data rate matching feature automatically adjusts the drive's read and write speed based on the server and network environment, which increases performance, reduces mechanical wear on the drive, and extends tape life
- Soft-load feature automatically takes the data cartridge and moves it into the load position
- Advanced tape leader capture design ensures fail-safe cartridge loading
- Active head cleaning provides automated cleaning that increases head life and reduces the need for using the cleaning cartridge
- Lower power consumption for maximum reliability with minimum environmental costs
- HPE One-Button Disaster Recovery (OBDR) makes it possible to quickly restore an entire system using a single tape cartridge in the event of a disaster
HPE StoreEver LTO Ultrium Tape Drives represent eight-generations of LTO technology capable of storing up to 30TB per cartridge, with hardware data encryption, HPE StoreOpen with LTFS for ease of use at an unprecedented performance. Data hardware encryption using AES 256-bit provides easy-to-enable security to protect the most sensitive data and prevent unauthorized access of tape cartridges. Linear Tape File System (LTFS) is an open format for storing data on tape that makes LTO generation 5 and later tapes self-describing and file-based. Capable of data transfer rates up to 300 MB/s native, the Data Rate Matching further optimizes performance by matching host system speed to keep drives streaming, thus enabling the fastest tape performance.
