Maxell
LTO 5 Tapes (P/N 229323). LTO Ultrium 5 Tape Data Cartridge - 1.5TB/3.0TB Compressed
Maxell recently completed LTO Ultrium 5 data
cartridge compliance verification process including an exhaustive series of
tests to confirm interchange compatibility with other drives and media. Upon
completion of the tests, users of Maxell LTO Ultrium products can be confident
of compatibility and interchangeability between Maxell LTO Ultrium media and all
brands of Ultrium drives and media. Maxell has a successful track record with
LTO compliance testing and was first to pass the Ultrium 1, Ultrium 2, Ultrium 3
and Ultrium 4 data cartridge compliance verification process, as well.
With a compressed tape drive transfer rate of
up to 280MB/sec and maximum cartridge storage capacity of up to 3TB (assuming
2:1 compression), Maxell’s Ultrium 5 data cartridge is the fifth generation in
the LTO Ultrium technology roadmap which are planned to be extended to
capacities of up to 6.4TB with the sixth generation. The new technology provides
a near doubling of capacity over the previous generation. The LTO Ultrium 5 tape
drive technology is backward compatible with earlier generations, read and write
capability with the Ultrium 4 cartridges, and read capabilities with Ultrium 3
cartridges to help extend investments made in previous versions. The Maxell LTO
Ultrium 5 data cartridge may be used in all Ultrium 5 drives.
The LTO Ultrium 5 format features encryption
capabilities that debuted in LTO Ultrium 4 products, designed to enable
hardware-based writing of encrypted data to the LTO Ultrium data cartridge,
helping to protect the storage and transport of sensitive information. The LTO
Ultrium 5 format also features the WORM (Write Once, Read Many) functionality as
well as LTO Ultrium 4 and 3, allowing secure backup and storage of critical data
for legal support and regulatory compliance.
“Through the introduction of LTO Ultrium 5,
Maxell is proud to provide our customers the latest technologies to fulfill
changing data storage needs. End-users know they can rely on Maxell to continue
our focus on quality, innovation and manufacturing excellence,” stated Kazunobu
Maeda, General Manager, Hitachi Maxell Storage Media Division. “With vastly
increased performance and capacity along with encryption and WORM functionality,
Maxell is confident of maintaining its dominant market share and the continued
success of the LTO Ultrium format.”
