Reliable And Intelligent Quantum LTO 4 Tape

Quantum, IBM and HP introduced LTO ultrium format which is a viable and smart option in growing complex array of backup storage medium options. LTO is open tape format; therefore multiple media and product sources are available to the customers. LTO ultrium's open nature offers compatibility between the LTO tape products of different vendors. Quantum LTO-4 MR-L4MQN-01 tape has enormous 800GB recording capacity and in compressed mode, it can hold double amount of data (1600 GB). The fourth generation ultrium tape serves with its fast transfer rate of 68 MB/s. With 2:1 compression ratio, the transfer speed of Quantum LTO4 tape reaches 136 MB/second. LTO ultrium technology has been optimized to deliver unmatchable recoding capacity and efficiency. Data reliability and performance of LTO tape technology are unparalleled in automated and standalone environments. The capacity is maximized in LTO tape cartridge by using single reel.

LTO tape format is best suited for restore, backup and data archive applications. LTO technology has established new benchmark for high capacity data storage medium. Ultrium tape format meets the enterprises' growing needs for a highly efficient and robust storage medium that can perform its functions at low costs. Quantum LTO-4 tape has enormous 800GB recording capacity and in compressed mode, it can hold 1600GB data. Quantum LTO 4 ultrium tape offers more benefits to its customers with high native capacity and superior performance. With 2:1 compression, a single Quantum LTO-1 MR-L1MQN-01 tape cartridge allows 200 GB capacity. The size of LTO1 tape cartridge is smaller in comparison to the other existing single reel backup tapes. With 2:1 compression, a single Quantum LTO-3 MR-L3MQN-01 tape cartridge allows 800 GB capacity. With 2:1 compression, a single Quantum LTO-4 MR-L4MQN-01 tape cartridge allows 1600 GB capacity.

Native and compressed transfer rates of LTO ultrium 1 are 15MB and 30MB respectively. Native and compressed transfer rates of LTO ultrium 2 are 30MB and 60MB respectively. Native and compressed transfer rates of LTO ultrium 3 are 80MB and 160MB respectively. The cartridge memory (CM) employed in the ultrium cartridges improves efficiency. User defined information and redundant file log is provided by the LTO cartridge memory which helps to enhance functionality. Quick access to the data is ensured by an external reader therefore without inserting the LTO tape cartridge in the tape drive. Proven data compression and error correction mechanisms are the powerful features of Quantum LTO tape technology. Quantum LTO technology is very robust, durable and offers more flexibility and benefits to the customers.

The users of Quantum LTO format are provided with substantial freedom regarding controllers, reliability, interfaces, characteristics, performance and form factor. LTO ultrium technology has been optimized to deliver unmatchable recoding capacity and efficiency. The LTO ultrium tapes can be interchanged among the tape drives of different vendors which is the most advantageous that is not found in other tape formats. That is why the organizations prefer the linear tape technology because of its open nature. Quantum LTO technology saves cost and delivers unprecedented performance and output. Quantum LTO is efficient and delivers best results under severe conditions and work loads.
