StorageTek LTO Tape Drives

StorageTek LTO drives feature fast data transfer rates and large capacity so you can process more data in less time. The high-speed Fibre Channel interface further improves data movement, shortens backup windows, reduces downtime, and speeds recovery. Combined with StorageTek tape libraries, you can easily and affordably store, manage, and protect your growing data.

StorageTek LTO tape drives come in SCSI or FC interfaces, full- and halfheight platforms, and as single drives or within an automation environment. You choose the model that makes the most sense for your operating environment, application, capacity, and performance. The Fibre Channel interface available in automation products allows connections to new or existing SANs. Oracle’s scalable tape automation solutions were designed to accommodate whatever drive and interface you choose.

StorageTek LTO Tape Drives

• Cost-effective capacity. Store up to 800 gigabytes of native data on a single cartridge, reducing media costs while accommodating data growth.
• Reduced backup windows. Accelerate backups by processing more information in less time. The StorageTek LTO 4 tape drive moves data at rates as high as 120 megabytes per second, uncompressed.
• Enhanced data protection. Protect data integrity and help prevent data loss with powerful correction and verification capabilities.
• WORM-capable media integration. Secure, manage, and archive critical data records using WORM-capable media and StorageTek LTO 3 and StorageTek LTO 4 tape drives.
• Encryption capability.  Encrypt data on the tape cartridge via the drive's built-in data encryption capability and, in the event of tape cartridge loss, data is still protected.
