Ultrium5 LTO 1.5TB/3.0TB Tape Cartridge
Imation leverages a long-standing heritage in reliable, secure and durable data storage products and expertise in metal particulate media to help ensure that Ultrium LTO media exceeds standards for data protection and delivers the most data in a single, multi-terabyte data cartridge.
As a leading manufacturer of LTO generations 1, 2, 3 and 4, Imation expands on its tape media portfolio offering the next-generation Ultrium LTO 5 cartridge. Optimized for high capacity and performance with outstanding reliability, in either a stand-alone or an automated environment, the newest tape cartridge offers 1.5 terabytes of native storage or 3.0 terabytes of compressed storage and data transfer rates of up to 280MB/second. Ultrium LTO 5 tape cartridges offer significant improvements over prior tape generations. Enhancements in servo technology and improved data compression ensure the same length of tape can store more information and is suited for backup, restore and archive applications. The new format adds a partitioning functionality that enables nearline applications to index data and allows for faster searches via enhanced file control and space management. LTO 5 cartridges continue to offer hardware-based encryption, protecting the storage and transport of sensitive information.
A universal cleaning cartride is available and can be used on all generation Ultrium drives.
