Quantum LTO-7 Data Cartridge – Product Overview

The Quantum LTO-7 Data Cartridge (MR-L7MQN-01) is a standard rewritable LTO-7 Ultrium cartridge designed for enterprise backup, long-term archive and offline data retention.


Capacity

LTO-7 provides 6 TB native capacity and up to 15 TB compressed capacity, based on 2.5:1 compression.


Rewritable Media And WORM

MR-L7MQN-01 is rewritable media. Quantum's LTO-7 WORM cartridge is a separate product, MR-L7MQN-02, for Write Once, Read Many workflows.


Encryption

AES-256 encryption is a capability of compatible LTO-7 drives. When encryption is enabled in a supported drive and backup application, data written to this cartridge can be hardware-encrypted; the cartridge itself is not an encryption device.


Tape And Cartridge Format

The cartridge uses 960 m (3,150 ft) of tape and the standard 12.65 mm Ultrium tape width, making it suitable for compatible stand-alone drives and automated libraries.


Media Integrity And Archive

Quantum LTO media is designed for long-term archival storage and is supported by media-integrity analysis and library-management workflows. Quantum specifies a recommended environment of 16 to 25 °C and 20 to 50% relative humidity for LTO-7 media.


Media Care

Protect cartridges from shock, moisture, magnetic fields and contamination, store them vertically in protective cases, and allow them to acclimatise before use after significant environmental changes.
