HPE LTO‑9 Ultrium RW 45TB Data Cartridge

HPE Storage LTO Ultrium Cartridges provide up to 75 TB of ultra-low-cost storage to protect your data against the threat of cyberattack and meet the need for maximum 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 25-year legacy of ten generations, with native transfer speeds of up to 400 MB/s for LTO-10, there is a platform for every budget. Secure AES-256 encryption (per FIPS 197) provides even higher levels of data security and compliance with the most stringent industry regulations to prevent unauthorized data access. Linear Tape File System (LTFS) 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.

Reliable Offline Medium that Creates an Air Gap to Keep Data Out of the Reach of Cybercriminals -
Government agencies around the world recommend keeping copies of data offline. Using LTO technology from HPE storage lets you place data behind an airgap. It can help protect data from criminals using connected networks to try and encrypt both your primary and backup data.

Lowest Total Cost of Ownership for Long-term Archiving -
According to a white paper from Solutions North, "Data Economics: LTO-9 Optimizing Data Value" (2023), LTO technology has a measurable Return on Investment of up to 1856% when compared to cloud storage and 501% compared to HDD.

Highest Capacity and Performance of any Comparable Tape Technology -
HPE LTO-10 Ultrium data cartridges can write or read data at a blistering native 1.44 TB/hour, storing, encrypting, and protecting up to 75 TB* on a single cartridge. This makes them ideal for large-scale, 24x7, mission-critical IT environments (*capacity assumes 2.5:1 compression).

Ultra-reliable Storage Medium -
Tape is more reliable than enterprise SATA disk, with an uncorrectable bit error rate (UBER) of 1x10 to the power of 20 for LTO-9 versus 1x10 to the power of 15 for SATA HDDs. This difference of five orders of magnitude means tape is 100,000 times more reliable than enterprise SATA HDD.
