Description
Product overview
The AJ041A HP 800/1600GB Storageworks LTO-4 Ultrium 1840 Tape Library Drive Module is a high-capacity tape drive designed for use in enterprise environments. This tape drive provides reliable backup and restore capabilities, ensuring that critical information is protected in the event of data loss.
Capacity
The AJ041A tape drive has a native capacity of 800GB and a compressed capacity of 1600GB. This means that it can store large amounts of data on a single tape cartridge. The compressed capacity is achieved through the use of compression techniques that allow more data to be stored on a single tape.
Compatibility
The AJ041A tape drive is compatible with the Linear Tape-Open (LTO) format. This format is widely used in the IT industry for backing up and restoring data. The tape drive is also compatible with the LTO-4 standard, which provides fast and reliable backup and restore capabilities.
Interface
The AJ041A tape drive uses a Fibre Channel (FC) interface. Fibre Channel is a high-speed interface used for connecting storage devices to a computer network. The FC interface provides fast data transfer rates, making it ideal for backup and restore operations.
Tape Library Drive Module Design
The AJ041A tape drive is designed to be used as a drive module in a tape library. This design allows the tape drive to be easily integrated into an existing tape library, providing high-capacity backup and restore capabilities.
LTO-4 Standard
The AJ041A tape drive supports the LTO-4 standard. This standard provides fast and reliable backup and restore capabilities. The LTO-4 standard is widely used in the IT industry for backing up and restoring data, making the AJ041A tape drive a versatile storage solution for enterprise environments.
Data Transfer Rates
The AJ041A tape drive has a maximum data transfer rate of 120MB/s. This means that it can transfer up to 120 megabytes of data per second. The actual data transfer rate may be lower depending on the performance of the FC interface and the performance of the host computer.
Data Encryption
The AJ041A tape drive supports hardware-based data encryption. This means that data can be encrypted before it is written to the tape, ensuring the security of backed up data. The tape drive uses the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm, which is widely used in the IT industry for data encryption.
WORM Support
The AJ041A tape drive supports Write Once Read Many (WORM) functionality. This means that data can be written to the tape once and then be read many times, but it cannot be modified or deleted. WORM functionality is used to ensure the integrity of backed up data, preventing accidental or malicious modification or deletion.
Compatibility with Tape Libraries
The AJ041A tape drive is designed to be used with HP Storageworks tape libraries. These libraries are designed to provide enterprise-class backup and restore capabilities, and the AJ041A tape drive is a key component of these libraries. The tape drive is compatible with the HP StorageWorks MSL Tape Libraries, as well as the HP StorageWorks EML Tape Libraries.
Advanced Features
The AJ041A tape drive supports advanced features such as HP’s TapeAssure technology. This technology provides intelligent diagnostics and reporting capabilities, allowing users to proactively manage their tape infrastructure. The tape drive also supports HP’s Tape Encryption technology, which provides hardware-based encryption of data on the tape.
Integration with HP Systems
The AJ041A tape drive is designed to integrate seamlessly with HP systems. This ensures that the tape drive can be easily installed and configured, and that it will work reliably with other HP hardware and software products.
