IBM LTO Ultrium 8 Data Cartridge

The IBM® LTO Ultrium 8 data cartridge (LTO 8) offers double the storage capacity of the previous generation for long-term data preservation and rapid, reliable access to data. The eighth generation of LTO Ultrium tape media delivers 12 TB native capacity and up to 30 TB of compressed capacity for even greater efficiency and performance.

•  Increase capacity and performance : Use 12 TB native capacity and up to 30 TB of compressed capacity for better performance, and to reduce the number of cartridges, space and labor.

•  Reduce risk of data loss or corruption : Facilitate remote, offline data storage for superior protection from natural or man-made threats with tape cartridge portability.

•  Enhance data access : Retrieve files from tape rather than rely on third-party applications. This improves data access and can reduce licensing costs and dependencies.
