The HP StorageWorks Ultrium 460 with part number AD605A is a tape library drive module engineered for use in large-scale data storage environments. Designed to support LTO Ultrium technology, this drive unit offers a high-capacity solution for businesses with substantial backup and archiving needs. The Ultrium 460 drive module is compatible with the LTO-2 standard, which provides up to 200 GB of native storage and up to 400 GB with compression. This makes it an efficient choice for organisations looking to optimise their tape storage capabilities.
Connectivity for the Ultrium 460 is handled via the SCSI interface, which allows for reliable communication with a variety of storage environments. The SCSI interface provides assured throughput, ensuring that large data sets can be backed up or archived reliably and swiftly. The device is designed to fit seamlessly into HP's StorageWorks modular tape libraries, making it an ideal replacement or upgrade option.
Performance-wise, the HP StorageWorks Ultrium 460 is built for speed, delivering data transfer rates of up to 30 MB/second in non-compressed mode. When using hardware-based compression, the speed can increase up to 60 MB/second, greatly facilitating rapid backups and minimising delays in data transfer. It also includes error-correction features to ensure data integrity, which is crucial when dealing with critical backup operations.
In terms of physical design, the drive keeps to HP's standards with a compact form factor that is easy to install within supported tape libraries and autoloaders. Its compatibility with LTO media ensures that it is a future-proof solution that offers performance enhancements without drastically increasing operating costs over time.
