Every now and then, the IT department is subjected to some kind of change or the other. Technology these days changes within months and if a business wishes to succeed in its field it must be ready to adopt these changes. Many business experts are in favor of the statement that this is the era of technology and if a business wants to outperform its competitors then it should be updated with technology. When speaking of new technology one must talk about the sixth generation of Linear Tape Open Technology.

The end of 2012 marked the release of the sixth generation of Linear Tape Open Technology. The creators of this technology include Hewlett-Packard, IBM and Seagate. One of the brands of Information technology launching the sixth generation of Linear Tape Open Technology is Quantum. Quantum has a very loyal customer base in not only United States of America but all over the world. Users of Quantum products appreciate the good quality and innovation.

Quantum ultrium6 has a remarkably high storage capacity and processing speed. The storage capacity of the tape cartridge for raw data is 2.50 Terabytes but the tape ...
... also comes with a compression capacity of 2.5:1 which enables it store 6.25 Terabytes of data. This LTO6 is the first in the market to provide with such a high compression rate, making it an ideal candidate for data intensive businesses. The second high compression rate is provided by the previous generation of Linear Tape Open Technology and that is 2:1. The processing speed of the tape goes up to 400 Megabytes’ per second.

Quantum ultrium6 tape format has become a reason of interest for many businesses for not only its basic features but premium features like partition and encryption. The partition feature allows businesses to divide the tape in two halves; this enables them to use one single tape cartridge in place of two. This feature is of particular importance to those businesses who wish to store data of related departments in one single tape so that accessing that information later is convenient. The next advantage that is enjoyed by businesses that deploy Quantum LTO ultrium 6 system is that of high security and protection of data. The major concern of the today’s businesses is how to keep their data secure.

Many of them spend a large amount of money in installing various kinds of hardware and software that will keep their data safe and sound. Security becomes a problem for those businesses that can’t afford to lavishly spend on data protection, but Quantum LTO 6 system solves this problem permanently. The tape comes with encryption that allows businesses to encode backed up data which can be decoded by trusted office personnel. Secondly, the solution comes with the WORM feature ( Write Once Read Many). The name suggests this feature limits the ability of the business to edit and amend backed up data. This limited editing ability ensures that the data is stored in its authentic and original form.

LTO 6 tape cartridges are very robust, reliable and cost efficient. High performance VXA tapes, SDLT tapes, DDS tapes, AIT tapes, RDX cartridges and Sony LTX2500G, LTO6 tapes are available at Odsi.co.uk, at low price.
