High Performance Data Protection for Workgroup and Enterprise Servers
Quantum LTO-2 tape solutions leverage LTO technology and Quantum-exclusive features to provide the most reliable high performance tape data protection for medium and large businesses. The Quantum LTO-2 balances price with increased capacity, performance and reliability providing a very efficient Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). Doubling the performance of LTO-1 tape drives, the LTO-2 stores up to 400GB per cartridge* and delivers sustained backup speeds of up to 245GB per hour*.
Backward compatible with LTO -1 media, and interchangeable with tape drives from all Ultrium-certified manufacturers, the LTO -2 tape drive provides complete investment security.
The Quantum LTO-2 is the most reliable LTO-2 tape drive on the market, delivering reliability features only available from Quantum. MediaShield provides advanced cooling and ceramic fixed tape guides, extending media life by 100% over drives from all other manufacturers .
Multiple transfer speeds, FastSense™, inherent in the drive enable constant tape streaming and eliminate performance-degrading tape repositions by automatically matching the host’s transfer speed to one of the thirteen LTO-2 tape drive’s speeds. Dynamic PowerDown protects the drive and cartridge in the event of power loss.
SmartVerify concurrently verifies all data written to the tape, virtually eliminat ing the need for traditional verify pass during backup operations, thus reducing the backup window by 50%. With an error-free, full duty cycle MTBF of 250,000 hours, the LTO-2 is a sound investment supported by a three-year limited warranty.
