LTO Ultrium 100 GB Data Cartridge

By combining high storage capacity (100 GB native, 200 GB with 2:1 compression), performance, and reliability, IBM LTO Ultrium Data Cartridges continue the IBM commitment to enhancing tape technology. IBM LTO Ultrium Data Cartridges are part of a long line of IBM data cartridges that help provide superior media quality and reliability for organizations around the world.

  • Capacity (native)100 GB
  • Capacity (compressed)200 GB

 

 

LTO Ultrium 200 GB Data Cartridge

IBM TotalStorage LTO Ultrium 200 GB Data Cartridges, along with IBM Ultrium 2 drives, support the Linear Tape-Open Cartridge Memory (LTO-CM) chip, which enables the IBM Ultrium 2 tape drive to read and write to the data cartridge by using a radio frequency transmission. The LTO-CM enables fast, simultaneous transfer of cartridge dependent data with IBM Ultrium 2 tape drives during media load and unload cycles. This simultaneous exchange is designed to improve data access speeds by eliminating the need to read/write cartridge-dependent data from the media after it is loaded or before it is unloaded.

  • Capacity (native)200 GB
  • Capacity (compressed)400 GB

 

 

LTO Ultrium 400 GB Data Cartridge

IBM is delivering high-capacity media that provides clients the ability to meet the demanding growth in data storage.
