Applications
This tape drive is designed for use in server and storage systems, particularly in environments utilizing LTO technology. It is suitable for backup solutions where large volumes of data must be stored efficiently and securely. The use of tape cartridges enables cost-effective and energy-efficient archiving, especially for data that is not accessed daily. The LTO Ultrium technology is widely adopted in IT infrastructure and supports standardized cartridge formats.
Features and Specifications in Detail
The device offers an uncompressed capacity of 400 GB and achieves a capacity of 800 GB with compression. The burst transfer rate is 320 MB/s, while the supported transfer rate is 160 MB/s for compressed data and 80 MB/s for system characteristics. These values enable efficient data transfer, with actual speed depending on system performance. The integrated 128 MB hard disk cache supports data transfer and reduces latency during backup operations.
Technology Explained Simply
The drive uses LTO Ultrium technology, which is based on magnetic tape cartridges and designed for high storage density and reliability. The SCSI interface enables direct connection to the host system, ensuring stable and high-performance data transfer. The hardware-based data encryption is based on the AES-256-bit standard, providing a high level of security for sensitive data. Encryption can be enabled without impacting the drive’s performance. The Data Rate Matching function adjusts the transfer rate to match the host system’s speed, ensuring continuous streaming and avoiding performance degradation.
Compatibility and Accessories
The drive is compatible with LTO Ultrium 3 cartridges, which offer a native capacity of 400 GB and a compressed capacity of 800 GB. It is designed for use in systems supporting SCSI technology. The use of HP TapeAssure enables monitoring of drive and media usage, performance, as well as lifespan and status information. This supports maintenance and planning of backup operations.
Mounting and Installation
The device is designed for internal installation and is mounted in standard 19-inch rack systems or server enclosures. Installation requires connection via the SCSI interface and power supply from the system. Physical dimensions are 20.8 cm (width) × 8.5 cm (depth) × 15 cm (height), with a weight of 2240 g. Mounting is typically done in a 5.25-inch slot.
Operational Advantages
The drive offers high storage capacity with low power consumption and is designed for 24/7 operation. The integrated data encryption and monitoring functions enhance security and manageability. The Data Rate Matching function ensures optimal bandwidth utilization and prevents interruptions during streaming. The use of tape cartridges allows for physical separation of data from the system, providing additional protection against cyberattacks.
