The HPE Ultrium LTO-5 Data Cartridge is a high-capacity, energy-efficient tape cartridge designed for backing up, storing, and archiving large amounts of critical data. With a physical capacity of 1.5TB native and up to 3TB compressed, this data cartridge offers significant storage density, making it an ideal solution for businesses with increasing data storage needs.
Key to the function of the HPE Ultrium LTO-5 data cartridge is the Linear Tape Open (LTO) technology. LTO technology is an open standard for data tape storage that allows for comprehensive compatibility between different providers and makes the LTO-5 cartridge part of a wider scale of progressively larger and faster LTO generations.
The Ultrium LTO-5 data cartridge has a data transfer speed of up to 280 MB/s in compressed mode, which drastically reduces the amount of time required for backups and the overall backup window. This will improve efficiency and productivity in a business setup, where time is of the essence.
The HPE LTO-5 cartridge also comes equipped with encryption capabilities for enhanced data security. Data stored on the cartridge can be hardware-encrypted at write-time using 256-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) for robust data privacy and security. This feature ensures your sensitive data is protected even if the cartridge is lost or stolen.
This data cartridge features a robust design, offering an estimated archival life of up to 30 years, which guarantees long-term reliability. With a minimum of one million passes over the lifetime of the cartridge, data can be read and re-read multiple times without loss of quality.
The LTO-5 tape cartridge also includes a built-in memory chip, known as Cartridge Memory in Chip (MIC). The MIC stores important cartridge information to expedite access times including system log information, usage history, and media performance metrics.
In terms of environmental sustainability, the HPE Ultrium LTO-5 data cartridges are a sound option. Requiring no power to maintain stored data, they offer an energy-efficient storage solution as compared to constant power-demanding disk storage.
Overall, the HPE Ultrium LTO-5 Tape Cartridge integrates capacity, performance, security and environmental sustainability, providing an excellent and reliable data storage solution for businesses of all sizes.
