The IBM 46X0402 is a high-capacity internal tape drive designed for data backup and storage. It is a Linear Tape-Open 5 (LTO-5) SAS Half-Height (HH) drive that can store up to 1.5 terabytes (TB) of uncompressed data or up to 3 TB of compressed data. This tape drive is an important device for businesses and organizations that require large amounts of data storage and retrieval.
A tape drive is a device that reads and writes data on magnetic tape. It is similar to a cassette tape recorder, but on a much larger scale. Tape drives are commonly used for data backup and archival purposes. They offer high-capacity storage at a low cost, making them ideal for organizations that need to store large amounts of data.
Linear Tape-Open (LTO) is a magnetic tape storage technology that was developed as a standard for high-capacity data storage. LTO technology is widely used in data centers and other organizations that require large-scale data storage. The LTO standard is managed by the LTO Program, which is a consortium of three technology companies: Hewlett Packard Enterprise, IBM, and Quantum.
LTO-5LTO-5 is the fifth generation of LTO technology. It was released in 2010 and is still widely used today. LTO-5 has a storage capacity of 1.5 TB for uncompressed data and up to 3 TB for compressed data. It also has a data transfer rate of up to 140 megabytes per second (MB/s) for uncompressed data and up to 280 MB/s for compressed data.
SASSerial Attached SCSI (SAS) is a type of computer interface used for connecting devices such as hard drives, tape drives, and other storage devices. SAS provides a faster data transfer rate than other types of interfaces, such as SATA. SAS is commonly used in data centers and other organizations that require high-speed data transfer.
Half-Height (HH) refers to the size of the tape drive. A half-height tape drive is smaller than a full-height tape drive, which makes it more compact and easier to install in a server or other computing device.
Internal Tape DriveAn internal tape drive is a tape drive that is installed inside a server or other computing device. Internal tape drives are commonly used in data centers and other organizations that require large-scale data storage.
