The HP StorageWorks Ultrium 920 SAS Drive Upgrade Kit (part number AH562AR) is a high-performance tape drive solution designed for businesses requiring reliable data storage and backup. This kit supports the LTO Ultrium 4 technology, which offers a significant storage capacity of up to 800GB native and 1.6TB compressed.

The tape drive fits into a variety of HP StorageWork tape libraries, enabling easy scalability as data storage needs grow. Moreover, it is optimised for software from leading backup providers such as Symantec and HP Data Protector.
