Overview

HPE Storage LTO Ultrium Tape Drives (formerly known as HPE StoreEver LTO Ultrium Tape Drives) represent nine generations of linear tape open (LTO) technology capable of storing up to 45 TB [1] per cartridge, with hardware data encryption, with linear tape file system (LTFS) for ease of use at an unprecedented performance. Data hardware encryption using AES 256-bit provides easy-to-enable security to protect the most sensitive data and prevent unauthorized access of tape cartridges. LTFS is an open format for storing data on tape that makes LTO generation 5 and later tapes self-describing and file-based. Capable of data transfer rates up to 300 MB/s native, the data rate matching further helps optimize performance by matching host system speed to keep drives streaming, thus enabling a faster tape performance.
