The HP StorageWorks Ultrium 920, part number EH903A, is a high-performance tape drive that utilises the LTO Ultrium 3 format to deliver robust data storage and archiving. This SCSI interface-based drive provides a dependable method for organisations to safeguard their data, offering enhanced performance and capacity when compared to its predecessors.
A key feature is its ability to store up to 400GB of data natively and up to 800GB of compressed data, ensuring effective handling of large volumes of information. The drive operates at a maximum data transfer rate of 60MB/s (native) or 120MB/s (compressed), which can significantly reduce the time needed for backup or retrieval operations. This performance improvement stems from its third-generation LTO Ultrium technology, an industry-standard recognised for scalability and reliability in enterprise environments.
The HP StorageWorks Ultrium 920 supports read and write compatibility with LTO-3 media, while also maintaining read compatibility with LTO-2 cartridges. This flexibility makes it a valuable asset in environments requiring backward compatibility for legacy backups. Combining high capacity and rapid transfer speeds, this tape drive is suitable for businesses managing growing amounts of data from various critical applications and services.
The tape drive is equipped with a standard 68-pin Wide Ultra320 SCSI connection, ensuring smooth integration within legacy infrastructure where SCSI remains a key connectivity interface. Additionally, the HP StorageWorks Ultrium 920 comes in a half-height form factor, making it ideal for installations where physical space is a concern, offering flexibility without sacrificing reliability and performance.
