Due to the rapid growth and development of internet and E-business activities, the data storage needs are increasing at an astounding rate. The world has now become more intelligent and instrumented. The enterprises need more reliable, smarter and economical backup solution that can deliver increased storage capacity and higher output at a reasonable price.

LTO is an intelligent, cost effective and high speed tape technology that has enabled the companies to drive down their IT costs. The major factor that contributes to the huge success of LTO format is its open standard. Interoperability of LTO media tapes among different brands of tape drives makes it the most preferred storage technology.

Fifth generation IBM LTO-5 tape products protect and secure your sensitive data for longer time period and make it available when you need it. IBM TS2350 System Storage tape drive has leveraged the latest LTO-5 tape version to enable the data managers to cost effectively meet the growing backup storage needs. TS2350 LTO-5 drive is most reliable choice for handling the increased pressure of high volume backups and high ...
... density recordings.

IBM LTO5 drive is developed to satisfy the backup needs of small & medium businesses, departmental servers, workstations, network servers, remote offices and data centers. IBM LTO 5 tape cartridges are more durable and have the capacity to store 3TB information in compressed mode. Now you can also create partitions on the LTO-5 tape cartridges, which allows better and efficient data management. IBM TS2350 drive features 2:1 compression. The IBM LTO5 drive supports high transfer speed, and its durable tape head assures excellent performance and unmatched data integrity in all demanding environments.

IBM has increased the data performance of TS2350 LTO-5 tape drive to 140 MB/s (native). The drive has a 6 GB/s SAS connectivity and one Ethernet port for offer broader connectivity to open system servers. IBM LTO5 technology continues to support the 256-bit hardware based encryption and write-once read-many techniques.

Backward media compatibility is a cost saving feature that secures your previous investments. TS2350 drive provides backward compatibility with the previous 2 generations. LTO-3 media is read-compatible and LTO4 tape media is read/write compatible. IBM TS2350 drive is engineered to address the needs of high volume backups, long term protection and rapid access to the stored files. LTO IBM tapes are listed below:
