In this article, we will discuss in detail the features and specifications of this tape drive.
LTO technology is a widely used magnetic tape data storage technology that is designed to provide high-capacity, high-speed data storage for businesses. The LTO technology was developed by a consortium of companies, including HP, IBM, and Quantum Corporation, to provide a standardized and open format for data storage. The LTO Ultrium format is the most widely used in the LTO technology family and is designed for use in enterprise-level data storage systems.
Features
The EH842-69201 HP 400GB/800GB LTO3 Ultrium 920 SCSI LVD External Tape Drive has a native capacity of 400GB and a compressed capacity of 800GB. This means that it can store up to 400GB of uncompressed data or up to 800GB of compressed data. The tape drive achieves this high capacity by using advanced data compression algorithms.
Speed
The tape drive has a maximum data transfer rate of 80MB per second (native). This means that it can transfer data at a rate of up to 80MB per second without any data compression. With data compression, the data transfer rate can be increased up to 160MB per second. The high-speed data transfer rate makes the tape drive an ideal choice for businesses that need to back up or restore large amounts of data quickly.
