Living in a fast era of I.T environment, it is difficult to reliably manage and backup the growing amounts of data, while dealing with limited data center space. Dell LTO (linear tape open) solution has made it easier for today’s data-rich organizations providing them with higher performance and fast backup speed. Dell LTO ultrium tape products are robustly designed ideally to meet all the user expectations; longer working life, economical storage performance, reduced power consumption and low maintenance cost. LTO tape generations offer the “Read and Write” compatibility.

Dell LTO3 tape technology provides superior reliability and robust data security with superior cost effectiveness. Excellent quality with low prices, enhanced storage capacity of 400 GB / 800 GB (assuming 2:1 compression ratio), long term reliability and exceptional compatibility are few of the compelling features of Dell LTO3 media tape. The Dell LTO ultrium3 tape drives feature native data transfer rate of 60 Mbps / 120 Mbps. The host interface introduced in Dell LTO3 drive is ultra 160 SCSI LVD interface. With large 128MB data buffer, you ...
... can be assured of uninterrupted write/read operations.

For storing large data volumes and high demanding application, Dell LTO-3 cartridges are the smartest choice. Long-term investment in Dell LTO-3 technology is encouraged as it has an effective longer durable life. The Dell PowerVault ultrium3 drives are designed to save you more time and cost during high volume backups with their native speed of 288GB/hour.

Dell LTO-3 drive has been developed in half-height model to help meet customers’ specific needs. It is read compatible with LTO 1 and LTO 2 standard formats and can be easily integrated into complex I.T infrastructures. That means the customers can operate three versions of LTO tapes with Dell LTO-3 drive. A single Dell LTO3 cartridge can backup twice the amount of data than LTO2 ultrium tape. Dell LTO-3 is ideally designed for commercial applications, client/server environments (medium or small sized organizations) and modern information systems. SCSI Low Voltage Differential (LVD) interface option is available in Dell LTO-3 drive. As a result customers can enjoy superior back-up performance and secured investment in Dell LTO-3 while utilizing the previous LTO resources as well. In order to support the data mining, supply chain management and digital audio/video applications, the recording performance and throughput speed of Dell LTO-3 drive has been significantly enhanced.

For budgeted constrained organizations, Dell LTO-3 drive and media are ideally designed to better serve the backup needs. Dell LTO-3 tape drive automatically alters its speed in case the host system is slower or has an inconsistent data throughput rate. Along with Ultra high speed, the Dell LTO-3 solution provides additional advantage of error correction mechanism, multi channel support and servo technology. In order to keep the drive cool, an innovative “Media Shield” system has been incorporated that continually blows away the air. LTO-3 ultrium technology enables the recording of information in a non re-writeable format known as WORM technology, which ensures prevention of data deletion and unintentional overwrites.
