Overview

HPE LTO-Ultrium 9 Data Cartridge - LTO-9 - Rewritable - Labeled - 18 TB (Native) / 45 TB (Compressed) - 3395.67 ft Tape Length - 20 Pack (part number Q2079AC) is supplied by Uniqcli, an authorized HPE partner, in the HPE Tape Media category. Media Formats: Rewritable.

Key Features Reliable Offline Medium that Creates an Air Gap to Keep Data Out of the Reach of Cybercriminals Agencies such as the US FBI recommend keeping data offline. This is because tapes that are stored offline are disconnected from the network and are out of reach of sophisticated criminals who use digital networks to strike at companies to encrypt both their primary data and their backups. Built-in AES 256-bit encryption (LTO-5 to LTO-9) allows you to provide additional security for data stored on tape. With LTO encryption (strengthened by the option to use WORM cartridges), even if tapes were to fall into the wrong hands, your data would be protected from unauthorized access. HPE LTO Ultrium cartridge memory chip delivers faster access time and enhanced media monitoring. First time restore ensured with fewer media failures and disrupted backups, regardless of duty cycle or environmental conditions. Lowest Total Cost of Ownership for Long-term Archiving According to a white paper from ESG, 'The Economic Benefits of HPE StoreEver as Active Archival Storage', published in August 2020, LTO tape technology is over 80% less expensive across a 10-year period, than either all-disk or all-cloud solutions for a 1 PB archive growing at 10% per annum. Standardizing on HPE LTO Ultrium delivers the capacity to meet shrinking backup windows, industry-standard, AES 256-bit encryption (IEEE1619.1), and interchangeable read-write (RW) or WORM media, without extra space or IT resource overhead. Open standard technology helps ensure compatibility across product generations and gives you more choice. HPE LTO Ultrium cartridges are available as custom labeled or non-custom labeled. HPE brand qualification test procedures (load/unload, shoeshine, drop testing and environmental stress testing) go far beyond what is required for the LTO Ultrium logo.This ensures maximum reliability for restoring your data. HPE warrants LTO Ultrium cartridges for up to 30 years archival life. This ensures businesses can meet the ever-increasing demands of regulation for data retention and archiving. Highest Capacity and Performance of any Comparable Tape Technology HPE LTO-9 Ultrium data cartridges can write or read data at a blistering 3.6 TB/hour, storing, encrypting, and protecting up to 45 TB on a single cartridge, making it ideal for large-scale, 24x7, mission-critical IT environments (capacity assumes 2.5:1 compression). A 35% increase in the number of tracks and a 3% increase in bit density has permitted a capacity increase from 30 TB for LTO-8 to 45 TB for LTO-9. From 2,176 tracks for LTO-6 to 8,960 tracks for 9th generation HPE LTO-9 Ultrium 45 TB cartridges (assuming 2.5:1 compression) - an improvement of 311%

• LTO-9 tape technology - Reliable and cost-efficient tape backup solution for Small and Medium Business (SMB) market • 45 TB of compressed storage capacity, helps reduce quantities of cartridges and the amount of equipment, space and labor related to tape-based data storage • 18 TB native storage capacity, making it a perfect choice for specific backup and archive applications
