The family of HPE StorageWorks Ultrium tape drives is HPE's premier line of backup devices. Based on the LTO Ultrium format, an open standard with a well-defined six-generation roadmap, HPE Ultrium tape drives offer customers the best choice for investment protection. With ultimate reliability and ease of use in mind, even at 100% duty cycles, HPE's rugged design builds on superior LTO technology and adds advanced features like hardware data encryption to create a new level of data protection. The tape drives employ dynamic data rate matching to adjust to the speed of the host, reducing wear and tear on both drive and media and increasing performance, even on slower hosts. HPE's ultra-durable soft-load feature automatically positions the data cartridge, and the highly reliable HPE leader-capture mechanism virtually eliminates lost leaders, increasing the success of your backup and restore operations. Support for HPE One-Button Disaster Recovery provides the easiest way to restore data in the event of a disaster. The StorageWorks family of tape drives also features support for HPE Library and Tape Tools, which provides a single application for drive management, diagnostics, and performance optimization. If data is critical to your business, protect it with an HPE StorageWorks Ultrium tape drive.
HPE StorageWorks LTO-4 Ultrium 1840 Tape Drive sets new standards for capacity, performance and security. The Ultrium 1840 represents HPE's fourth-generation of LTO tape drive technology capable of storing up to 1.6TB per cartridge while providing hardware-based data encryption to enable greater levels of security and unprecedented performance. AES 256-bit hardware data encryption provides easy-to-enable security to protect the most sensitive data and prevent unauthorized access of tape cartridges. By using Ultrium 1840 hardware data encryption, not only is data fully capable of being compressed therefore maximizing capacity, encrypted backups are completed without a loss in performance. Capable of data transfer rates up to 240MB/sec, HPE's exclusive Data Rate Matching feature further optimizes performance by matching speed of host to keep drives streaming and enabling the fastest performance of any tape drive in the industry. The Ultrium 1840 provides investment protection with full read and write support with LTO-3 media, and the ability to read LTO-2 cartridge. By doubling the capacity of previous generation Ultrium drives, HPE customers now require fewer data cartridges to meet their storage needs, significantly reducing their IT costs and increasing their ROI.
