- Large-capacity drive capable of storing compressed storage on a single cartridge, requiring fewer data cartridges to meet storage needs, significantly reducing IT costs
- AES 256 bit data encryption and support for WORM media provide a secure method for long-term retention of critical data records
- Fast data transfer rate up to 280 Mbps (LTO-5) to meet demands of even the tightest backup window
- High capacity combined with low media cost delivers an exceptionally low cost of ownership and ensures a faster return on investment
- HPE's exclusive data rate matching feature automatically adjusts the drive's read and write speed based on the server and network environment, which increases performance, reduces mechanical wear on the drive, and extends tape life
- Soft-load feature automatically takes the data cartridge and moves it into the load position
- Advanced tape leader capture design ensures fail-safe cartridge loading
- Active head cleaning provides automated cleaning that increases head life and reduces the need for using the cleaning cartridge
- Lower power consumption for maximum reliability with minimum environmental costs
- HPE One-Button Disaster Recovery (OBDR) makes it possible to quickly restore an entire system using a single tape cartridge in the event of a disaster
The HPE LTO-4 Ultrium 1760 Tape Drive is HPE's fourth-generation of half-height LTO tape drive technology capable of storing cartridge. Available in both SCSI and SAS models, HPE Ultrium half-height drives are designed for server customers in direct attached storage (DAS) environments where hard disk and system bottlenecks can impede data transfer rates. To further protect the most sensitive data, AES 256-bit hardware data encryption provides easy-to-enable security to prevent unauthorized access of tape cartridges. By using LTO-4 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 160 Mbps, 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 1760 provides investment protection with full read and write support with LTO-4 and LTO-3 media, and the ability to read LTO-2 cartridge.
