The HP StorageWorks Ultrium 215m is a tape library drive module designed for medium to large-scale data storage environments. With the part number C7492AR, this unit leverages LTO Ultrium technology, which is known for its reliable and high-capacity tape storage capabilities. This model specifically supports the LTO Ultrium 1 format, delivering a storage capacity of up to 100GB of uncompressed data, with the capacity increasing to 200GB with compression. This allows users to store extensive amounts of data on a single tape, making it a suitable choice for backup, archiving, and other long-term data retention needs.
The drive uses the SCSI interface for connectivity, ensuring high-speed data transfer rates of up to 160MB/s. The SCSI interface is widely compatible with many server environments, meaning it can integrate easily with existing backup systems. The Ultrium 215m also boasts high data reliability, with an error rate of only 1 in 10^18 bits read, ensuring data integrity over the long term. Additionally, the drive is compatible with standard 5.25-inch form factor bays, which is a common setup in many storage systems.
Designed for efficiency, the HP StorageWorks Ultrium 215m features hardware-based data compression, reducing redundancy in stored files to maximise tape usage. The drive's backward compatibility with earlier LTO versions further enhances its versatility, allowing it to read LTO Ultrium 1 tapes and write to both LTO Ultrium 1 and Ultrium 2 tapes. This feature is especially useful in maintaining legacy systems while upgrading to newer technology.
