Overview
Quantum's LTO-4 HH tape drive is a half-height tape drive that offers the same performance and reliability as competitors’ full-height LTO-4 tape drives. At the same time, Quantum’s LTO-4 HH is the smart choice for those looking to reduce power consumption and cooling costs in the data center because it uses up to 46% less power when idle than the competition and up to 26% less power in stand-by mode . In addition, it uses less power when reading and writing than LTO-3, while being 50% faster. The drive has a native transfer rate of 120 MB/sec and native capacity of up to 800GB. Its simple space saving half-height form factor uses the latest industry standard interface -- Serial Attached SCSI (SAS)-- to allow for easy installation and integration into your datacenter, while providing the same performance as competitors’ full-height LTO-4 drives. Quantum’s LTO-4 HH tape drives also protect your investment by providing backward read and write compatibility with LTO-3 media and backward read compatibility with LTO-2 media. And with Quantum’s LTO-4 HH drives, security is now at its highest level as drives feature AES 256-bit data encryption. Encryption on LTO-4HH tape drives is hardware based, allowing for the highest level of security without any loss of performance during the encryption process. In addition, LTO-4 HH is WORM capable when used with LTO WORM data cartridges.
