HP LTO Ultrium Cartridges

Description

The Ultrium format builds on the best of existing technologies; open standards increase innovation and widen customer choice in terms of performance, capacity, and form factor. Backed by HP’s exhaustive media qualification process, HP Ultrium data cartridges support all HP and non-HP Ultrium tape devices.

Key features and benefits:

• Up to 6.25 TB compressed capacity.
• Supports transfer speeds up to 400 MB/sec or 1.4 TB/hour (2.5:1) with Generation 6.
• Both Advanced Metal Particle and Barium Ferrite options available for LTO-6.
• For use in all HP and non-HP LTO Ultrium products.
• Unique coloured cartridge to assist with identification in mixed media environments.
• Very low media cost per GB – less than 3 cents per gigabyte for LTO-6.
• LTO cartridge memory in media to improve access time and provide enhanced media monitoring.
• Durable cartridge designed to minimise wear and debris (important in automation).
• Tested to extremes in HP’s media laboratory, to a level of specification unique to Hewlett-Packard. Many of the test procedures required for HP brand qualification (eg. load/ unload, shoeshine, drop testing and environmental stress testing) are not required for the LTO Ultrium logo.
• Hardware-based encryption for compliance with FIPS 140-2 level 1 security standards.
