IBM 46X1290 LTO Ultrium 5 Data Tape Cartridge (1.5/3.0TB)

IBM 46X1290 LTO Ultrium 5 Data Tape Cartridge (1.5/3.0TB)

  • Compressed Capacity: 3.0TB
  • Native Capacity: 1.5TB
  • Native Transfer Rate: 170 MB/s
  • Metal Particle Media Technology
  • Linear Serpentine Recording Cartridge

Offering up to 1.5TB of storage, the 46X1290 LTO Ultrium 5 Data Tape Cartridge from IBM makes it simple to back up large amounts of data in LTO Ultrium Generation 5 storage environments. The 46X1290 provides up to 1.5TB of physical storage (3TB with 2:1 compression). Data that is encrypted by LTO Ultrium 5 drivers can be stored on this media to securely maintain data integrity. The dual-partition capability is designed to enhance the performance of time-encoding applications. This unit is ideal for use in data centers, and designed for long data retention and archiving with no power required while at rest.

This cartridge is designed to help improve read/write reliability by storing IBM's statistical media read/write analysis on every use of the cartridge when used with IBM LTO tape drives, and to adhere to widely supported Linear Tape-Open (LTO) Ultrium design specifications.

The cartridge is embedded with an LTO Cartridge Memory (LTO-CM) chip, which is designed to enable fast, simultaneous transfer of cartridge-dependent data with IBM tape drives during media load and unload cycles. The burgundy cartridge color helps distinguish it from previous generations of IBM LTO Ultrium Media in your data center.The LTO Ultrium 5 data cartridges are compatible with LTO Generation 5 tape drives and tape libraries, utilizing LTO generation 5 drives from IBM and other LTO generation 5 compliant suppliers.
