subject: Quantum Lto5 Tape Storage Systems Usability And Cost Efficiency Has Been Enhanced With Ltfs Techn [print this page] One thing is common in all types of business organizations, which is rapidly growing data volumes. New business players from the emerging countries are forcing the IT managers to increase their processing time, efficiency and reduce operating expenses. Most importantly, data security must be intensified so that your business response time is not affected. The core functionality in a smart data security plan is backup storage. Encryption software, anti-viruses and other security measures might not fully protect your data and therefore, you cannot depend on these solutions. Backup storage is the only solution that wont let you down if the operational data is corrupted or wiped out from the hard drive.
Quantum is the ideal brand for all the stiff demands of companies ranging from small to large. For the storage-intensive companies, Quantum has engineered an in-expensive, extremely compact, user-friendly and smart LTO5 tape solution. Multi-vendor compatibility of this LTO (Linear Tape Open) system enhances the media choice, whereas the backup storage operations can be performed in other LTO environments as well.
This tape system fulfills the specific demands of large and medium sized companies with FH (full height) and HH (half height drives). They can backup an enormous 1.0 terabyte data onto LTO5 tape within an unbeatable time period of one hour. Industry leading track density has boosted the capacity of tiny LTO5 cartridge to an exceptionally high 1.5/3.0 terabytes.
Linear Tape File System (LTFS) is the most intelligent feature that has accelerated the processing time and reduced complexity. The data storage management with Quantum LTO5 system has been simplified and you are provided the flexibility of a removable USB drive. Files can be restored and recorded onto the LTO ultrium5 tape at a faster rate and with exceptional reliability. Data management is very simple, drag/drop or copy/paste the files. So, as your security and backup storage requirements increase, they can be easily handled with minimal effort.
Users are also provided the luxury to access the LTO3 and LTO ultrium 4 tapes. So, all of the prior LTO tape resources will help cut down the budget, as the organizations will need to purchase fewer media tapes. Ultrium 4 tapes can also be added to the new datasets for data recording. The directories immediately appear on the host systems screen as the drive loads the LTO5 tape. The users wont have to run backup software. This smart approach saves more time and efficiently handles the demands of media-rich applications and advanced computing systems. LTO tape cartridges deliver the best storage value as they can be exchanged between different brands of compliant LTO drives.
Quantum LTO5 drives maintain superior performance level even with fluctuating in-coming data rate. They can write data at variable speeds. Moreover, the drives concurrently detect the errors and re-write that data track. Strong cartridge shells have been designed by Quantum for all generations of LTO tapes. Quantum LTO5 system can be installed with 3-U and 1-U rack mount kit. So this ultra high-capacity tape system also fulfills the demands of space-constrained organizations.
