Description
The HPE LTO-7 and LTO-8 Ultrium tape drives represent Hewlett Packard Enterprise's seventh and eight generations of LTO tape drive technology, capable of storing up to 15TB (LTO-7 compressed 2.5:1) and 30TB (LTO-8 compressed 2.5:1) per cartridge while providing AES 256-bit hardware data encryption to protect the most sensitive data and prevent unauthorized access of tape cartridges. Capable of data transfer rates up to 300 MB/sec (native), its Speed Matching feature further optimizes performance by matching the speed of the host to keep drives streaming and increase the reliability of the drive and media. The HPE LTO-7 and LTO-8 Ultrium tape drives are available as standalone internal and desktop devices or for integration into HPE MSL autoloaders and tape libraries.
