subject: Lto 1 Most Recognized, Trusted Storage Media Tape Format [print this page] The LTO (Linear Tape Open) Ultrium based technology which is best and most advanced magnetic tape format developed by computing giants IBM, HP and Seagate (Quatnum) in the mid 90s to meet with growing challenges of storing data and its preservation. Digital data is growing rapidly with massive changes in trends and adopting technologies. Now these days generally different departments and business communities spending a lot of money to preserve their very important and sensitive data. LTO Ultrium technology somehow restrains this problem and offers a most excellent and remarkable choice in this rapidly growing data storage environments. The data managers around the world who using LTO Ultrium tape technology soon realized this fact that LTO Ultrium tape is best and most open technology for their requirements with higher capacities, speed, durability and remarkable consistent performance.
First LTO1, introduced in 2000. World most recognized manufacturers and members of the LTO consortium starts its production. The LTO Ultrium tape technology is an excellent combination of very reliable and most advanced technologies. LTO-1 tapes, offers impressive qualities and adoption of excellent coating techniques for its base film, though thinner and smaller and extra fine metal particles and dispersion methods. High class base film with 384 data tracks 12.65mm width and 609M long length of the tape offers excellent data capacity with 100GB native and 200GB compressed (2:1 compression). The massive data storage capacity is most important quality of any type of data storage device and LTO Ultrium proved to be the best and exceptional solution for extra capacity.
Excellent basic features and development improved HP C7971A, reliability, brilliant read and write data is possible with stable and accurate Servo System which aligned the data tracks and tape position during data load and unload process. Accurate Servo also speeds up the transaction process and offers excellent 20MB/Sec native and 40MB/Sec compressed data transfer speed, this is ideally good speed compare to massive data storage capacity. Imation 41089, solid design and best technology offers perfectly and firmly closed cartridge which prevent the base film from outside stresses and enabling perfect preservation of data and other inside built in components. The best and reliable design also prevents the Fuji 2620010, from accidental drops and during relocations. Solid formation of cartridge also offers long term reliability and durability of data with 30 years working ability and preservation of archival.
LTO 1 tapes, have a built in memory chip which is also known as LTO-CM with 4KB storing ability. Memory chip able to store most important data about the cartridge and its history, and offers excellent fast and reliable accesses to Sony LTX100G, cartridge dependent data during data load and unload processes. Memory chip also helps with data monitoring and expose the errors of the cartridge and solved it. All Maxell 183800, tapes are compatible with LTO Ultrium 1 tape drives and automatic loader with excellent data read and write capability. The LTO Ultrium technology has been trusted by the enterprise level and this is proved to be the best formation for better data protection and preservation for many long years.
LTO 1 Ultrium tapes offer impressive storage capacity and speed with long term data protection and reliability.
