The HP StorageWorks LTO-5 Ultrium 3000 SAS External Tape Drive model EH958SB is a high-performance data storage solution designed for businesses needing reliable archival storage and backup capabilities. As a fifth-generation tape drive, it utilises LTO Ultrium-5 technology to provide large storage capacity, efficient data transfer, and robust security features.
This tape drive offers a native storage capacity of 1.5 TB and a compressed capacity of up to 3.0 TB, making it a suitable choice for environments requiring the safeguarding of large amounts of data with minimal physical storage space. In terms of speed, the data transfer rate can reach up to 280 MB/s, ensuring that critical information is backed up quickly and efficiently.
The EH958SB tape drive uses the SAS-2 interface, offering 6 Gbps throughput, which is ideal for high-performance servers or storage infrastructures. The SAS interface also supports faster communication between the drive and the host system, ensuring reliable, consistent performance.
In terms of physical design, the HP StorageWorks LTO-5 Ultrium 3000 comes in an external form factor, allowing for ease of installation and portability across systems. Its robust build ensures the longevity and durability typically expected from enterprise-grade archival solutions. Additionally, the tape drive is compatible with WORM (Write Once, Read Many) technology, which provides an extra layer of security for regulatory compliance and data integrity.
This drive is also backward compatible with LTO-4 media, allowing for use in environments where earlier generations of tape may already be in use, providing a level of investment protection.
