The 46X1258 IBM 1.5TB/3TB LTO-5 SAS HH Internal Tape Drive is a high-performance tape drive designed for use in servers and other data storage systems. Here are some key performance and speed specifications:
- Capacity: The tape drive has a native capacity of 1.5 terabytes (TB) and a compressed capacity of up to 3.0 TB, which makes it ideal for storing large amounts of data.
- Data transfer rate: The tape drive has a native data transfer rate of up to 140 megabytes per second (MB/s) and a compressed data transfer rate of up to 280 MB/s. This means that it can quickly and efficiently transfer large amounts of data to and from the tape.
- Interface: The tape drive uses a Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) interface, which is a high-speed, point-to-point interface that provides fast and reliable data transfer between the tape drive and the server or storage system.
- Compatibility: The tape drive is compatible with a wide range of operating systems and backup software, including Windows, Linux, and UNIX. This makes it easy to integrate into existing storage infrastructures.
The 46X1258 IBM 1.5TB/3TB LTO-5 SAS HH Internal Tape Drive is a high-capacity backup storage device that uses Linear Tape-Open (LTO) technology to store and retrieve data. It features several data encryption and security features to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data.
- Encryption: The LTO-5 tape drive supports hardware-based AES-256 encryption, which provides strong data protection by encrypting data on the fly during the backup process. This means that the data on the tape is encrypted and can only be accessed by authorized users with the encryption key.
- WORM (Write Once Read Many) Technology: The LTO-5 tape drive supports WORM technology, which allows data to be written once to the tape and prevents any further modifications. This feature is useful for data that needs to be retained in its original form for regulatory or compliance reasons.
- Secure Erase: The LTO-5 tape drive features a secure erase function that securely erases all data on the tape, making it unrecoverable. This is useful when retiring or repurposing the tape.
- Key Management: The LTO-5 tape drive supports key management, which allows the encryption key to be securely managed and protected. This ensures that only authorized users have access to the encryption key.
- Tamper-evident labels: The LTO-5 tape drive comes with tamper-evident labels that provide evidence of any tampering or unauthorized access to the tape. This helps to ensure the integrity of the data on the tape.
Media Management and Capacity Planning for the 46X1258 IBM 1.5TB/3TB LTO-5 SAS HH Internal Tape Drive involves several key considerations, including the types of media used with the drive, the capacity of the drive, and the requirements for managing and storing data on the tape.
Media Types: The 46X1258 IBM 1.5TB/3TB LTO-5 SAS HH Internal Tape Drive is designed to work with LTO-5 tape media, which is a high-capacity tape format that is ideal for long-term storage of large amounts of data. These tapes have a storage capacity of up to 3TB when compressed, and 1.5TB when uncompressed, making them ideal for backup and archival applications.
Capacity Planning: When planning for capacity with the 46X1258 IBM 1.5TB/3TB LTO-5 SAS HH Internal Tape Drive, it is important to consider both the storage capacity of the tape media and the performance characteristics of the drive itself. This includes factors such as the data transfer rate, seek time, and average access time, which can impact the overall speed and efficiency of data transfer.
Management and Storage: To ensure effective management and storage of data on the 46X1258 IBM 1.5TB/3TB LTO-5 SAS HH Internal Tape Drive, it is important to have a robust backup and recovery strategy in place, as well as appropriate software tools for managing and monitoring the tape. This may include tools for monitoring tape usage and health, as well as tools for managing and organizing data on the tape, such as backup and archiving software.
