HPE LTO Ultrium Data Cartridges – Scalable, Secure, and Sustainable Archival Storage
The HPE LTO Ultrium Data Cartridge series delivers industry-leading performance, security, and reliability for organizations seeking long-term data protection and cost-effective archival solutions. Built on a legacy of nine generations of innovation, HPE LTO cartridges offer native transfer speeds of up to 1.44 TB/hour (LTO-9), making them ideal for high-throughput, mission-critical environments.
Designed to meet the evolving demands of enterprise IT, these cartridges provide AES 256-bit encryption (LTO-5 to LTO-9) and optional WORM (Write Once, Read Many) functionality to ensure compliance with stringent data security regulations. Whether you’re safeguarding sensitive records or meeting regulatory mandates, HPE LTO Ultrium offers a robust, scalable platform for secure offline storage.
Offline Protection Against Cyber Threats
Law enforcement agencies, including the US FBI, recommend maintaining offline copies of critical data to defend against ransomware and cyberattacks. HPE LTO cartridges create a physical air gap, disconnecting stored data from network access and shielding it from malicious threats. Even if tapes are compromised, built-in encryption ensures that unauthorized access is prevented.
Lowest Total Cost of Ownership for Long-Term Archiving
According to ESG’s 2020 white paper “The Economic Benefits of HPE StoreEver as Active Archival Storage”, LTO tape technology is over 80% more cost-effective than disk or cloud solutions over a 10-year period for a 1PB archive growing at 10% annually. HPE LTO Ultrium minimizes space, power, and cooling requirements, making it a greener and more sustainable choice for long-term data retention.
Unmatched Capacity & Performance
The LTO-9 Ultrium cartridge stores up to 45TB of compressed data (18TB native), with a 35% increase in track count and 3% boost in bit density over LTO-8. With 8,960 tracks compared to LTO-6’s 2,176, this generation offers a 311% improvement in data density. These enhancements enable faster backups and more efficient archiving for large-scale deployments.
Ultra-Reliable Storage Medium
Tape remains one of the most dependable storage formats, with a bit error rate (BER) of 1×10¹⁹—making it 10,000 times more reliable than enterprise SATA HDDs (BER of 1×10¹⁵). Over a decade, a 1 Exabyte archive would lose 1.1 Petabytes on HDD, versus just 7.4 Terabytes on tape. HPE’s rigorous qualification testing—including load/unload cycles, shoeshine resistance, drop testing, and environmental stress simulations—ensures maximum reliability and data integrity.
Engineered for Automation & Longevity
HPE LTO cartridges feature a smart grabber mechanism and mechanical interlock to prevent leader pin damage. Integrated sensors verify proper connection, while a simplified tape path reduces wear and debris buildup—critical for automated library systems. With up to 30 years of archival life under recommended conditions and a limited lifetime warranty, HPE LTO Ultrium is built for endurance.
