Valuable business information including accounting data, productivity application files, financial data, images, video/audio files and sales data is being added to the enterprise databases at astounding rates.  As a result, the data managers have to manage, store and retrieve larger data files and massive amounts of information.  According to the requirements of Securities & Exchange Commission and Sarbanes-Oxley regulations, the organizations must retain their financial documents and tax records for seven years. In addition to this, the other industry regulation including PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) and HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) also govern the data privacy.

Since December 2006, several modifications have been made to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.  These regulations have compelled the organizations to preserve their data for longer time durations.  The real challenge for the IT managers is manage, safeguard and preserve voluminous data volumes being generated today.

For years, LTO (linear tape open) technology has played a vital role in storing, retrieving and backing up huge volumes of mission critical data at a lowest cost.  LTO tape products enable the users to reliably preserve and safeguard their precious information.  LTO ultrium technology helps to meet the specifications of rigorous data retention laws in a cost effective manner.

Quantum’s newest LTO-5 tape products provide an economical solution for all these rigorous backup demands.  With storage capacity of 3 TB (compressed), the recently introduced Quantum LTO-5 tape features twice the media capacity of LTO4 tapes and almost four times the storage capacity of third generation LTO-3 tapes.  Quantum LTO5 drive and storage tapes are carefully engineered to provide enhanced security, low ownership cost, robust data protection and higher throughput that are required by the modern business enterprises.

Backward compatibility is the most compelling feature that secures your investments.  Backward compatibility of Quantum LTO5 drive includes previous 2 generations.  LTO-3 tapes are read-compatible while the read-write compatible tapes are LTO-5 and LTO-4.  The capability to store more volumes of information on fewer cartridges keeps costs down and helps to make the data management easier.  The massive capacity Quantum LTO-5 tape has the ability to accommodate higher volume backups.  So, fewer Quantum LTO5 tapes will be needed for your voluminous data amounts.

High quality LTO ultrium tape cartridges manufactured by Quantum are:

Quantum LTO 5 tape
MR-L5MQN-01

Quantum LTO 4 tape
MR-L4MQN-01

Quantum LTO 3 tape
MR-L3MQN-01

Quantum LTO 2 tape
MR-L2MQN-01

Quantum LTO 1 tape
MR-L1MQN-01

Naturally, when the volume of data increases, it will take more time to perform the archiving and backup operations.  This is where Quantum LTO-5 tape products are more advantageous as they support higher data throughputs.  Quantum LTO5 ultrium drives provide compressed data throughput rate of 280 Mbps, which is 120 Mbps faster than LTO3 and 40 Mbps faster than the LTO4 ultrium drives.

Tremendous transfer speed of Quantum LTO-5 drive enables the organizations to complete higher volume archiving and backup tasks faster, which is vital as the data volume increases.  New generation Quantum LTO5 backup devices offer the performance and storage capability to match the backup industry’s demanding challenges in a cost effective manner.
