The HP StorageWorks Ultrium 960 (part number: AD612BR) is a high-capacity, high-performance tape drive. It employs the LTO (Linear Tape-Open) Ultrium technology, providing up to 800 GB of compressed storage capacity (400 GB native) per data cartridge, ensuring efficient handling of large datasets. The drive supports fibre channel (FC) connectivity, a key feature for businesses looking to integrate the drive into existing network infrastructures for quick access and backups.
This device is built to deliver exceptional data transfer speeds of up to 160 MB/s (compressed), reducing the time required for backup and retrieval operations. Compatibility with LTO Ultrium 3 media makes it a device capable of both read and write operations for this format, while also offering backward read compatibility with LTO 2 media. This enhances flexibility for organisations that may need to access data from slightly older storage media.
The HP StorageWorks Ultrium 960 also features hardware-based data encryption, ensuring that sensitive or critical data is well protected during backup. The drive’s robust design, paired with its high mean time between failures (MTBF) of up to 250,000 hours at a 100% duty cycle, ensures a reliable long-term solution for data archiving and backups. This makes it an ideal choice for businesses with demanding data retention and high-volume backup needs.
Fully compatible with a variety of tape automation systems and libraries under the HP StorageWorks range, the Ultrium 960 provides scalable solutions for businesses looking to consolidate their data storage practices. Its compact design and efficient power consumption further make it a practical and cost-effective backup solution for medium to large enterprises.
