HPE LTO-8 Ultrium 30TB RW Data Cartridge

HPE LTO Ultrium cartridges provide reliable and low cost protection to guard your data against the threat of

cyber attacks and ransomware, as well as meeting your demands for reliability when restoring data.

They enable businesses to comply with the recommendations of law enforcement agencies around the world

to maintain offline copies of their data. Built upon a legacy of nine generations, and with native transfer speeds

of up to 1.44 TB/h for LTO-9, there is a platform for every budget. Secure AES-256 encryption provides even

higher levels of data security and compliance with the most stringent industry regulations to prevent unauthorized

data access. HPE StoreOpen and Linear Tape File System makes using tape as easy, flexible, portable and

 intuitive as using other removable and shareable media, such as a USB drive. Also, because LTO cartridges

at rest require minimal additional power and cooling, they offer a greener, more sustainable long term archival

 solution for your data

 the Reach of Cybercriminals

Agencies such as the US FBI recommend keeping data offline. This is because tapes that are

stored offline are disconnected from the network and are out of reach of sophisticated criminals

 who use digital networks to strike at companies to encrypt both their primary data and their backups.

Built-in AES 256-bit encryption (LTO-5 to LTO-9) allows you to provide additional security for data

 stored on tape. With LTO encryption (strengthened by the option to use WORM cartridges),

even if tapes were to fall into the wrong hands, your data would be protected from unauthorized access.

HPE LTO-9 Ultrium data cartridges can write or read data at a blistering native 1.44 TB/hour, storing, encrypting,

and protecting up to 45 TB* on a single cartridge, making it ideal for large-scale, 24x7, mission-critical IT environments

 (*capacity assumes 2.5:1 compression). A 35% increase in the number of tracks and a 3% increase in bit density has permitted

a capacity increase from 30 TB for LTO-8 to 45 TB for LTO-9. From 2,176 tracks for LTO-6 to 8,960 tracks for 9th generation

HPE LTO-9 Ultrium 45 TB cartridges (assuming 2.5:1 compression) – an improvement of 311% 

 Tape is more reliable than enterprise SATA disk, with a bit error rate (BER) of 1x10 to the power of

19 for LTO-8 versus 1x10 to the power of 15 for enterprise SATA HDD’s. That’s a difference in reliability

 of four orders of magnitude–e.g. tape is 10,000 times more reliable than enterprise SATA HDD
