HPE Storage LTO Ultrium Cartridges – High-Capacity, Ultra-Reliable Tape Media for Secure, Sustainable Archiving
The HPE Storage LTO Ultrium Cartridges represent the pinnacle of enterprise-grade tape storage, offering up to 75 TB of compressed capacity and native transfer speeds up to 400 MB/s with LTO-10. Built on a legacy of over 25 years and ten generations of innovation, these cartridges are engineered to meet the evolving demands of data protection, regulatory compliance, and long-term archival.
Designed for businesses, government agencies, and mission-critical IT environments, HPE LTO Ultrium tapes provide a cost-effective, secure, and sustainable solution for storing massive volumes of data offline—creating an essential air gap that protects against ransomware and cyberattacks.
Advanced Security and Compliance
- AES-256 encryption (FIPS 197, IEEE1619.1) built into LTO-5 through LTO-10 cartridges ensures data confidentiality and compliance with stringent industry regulations.
- WORM (Write Once, Read Many) options add an extra layer of protection, making data tamper-proof and immutable.
- LTFS (Linear Tape File System) support makes tape storage as intuitive and portable as using a USB drive, simplifying access and file management.
What’s New in LTO-10
- 400% increase in native capacity over LTO-7 (30 TB vs. 6 TB)
- Native performance boost: up to 1.44 TB/hour write speed (full-height drives)
- 69% increase in track density: 15,104 tracks vs. 8,960 in LTO-8
- FIPS140-2 Level 1 certification for encryption security
Offline Protection Against Cyber Threats
Law enforcement and cybersecurity experts recommend maintaining offline backups to prevent data loss from network-based attacks. HPE LTO Ultrium cartridges enable this by storing data in a disconnected, air-gapped medium, shielding both primary and backup data from encryption-based threats.
Lowest Total Cost of Ownership for Long-Term Archiving
According to the 2023 white paper “Data Economics: LTO-9 Optimizing Data Value” by Solutions North:
- LTO delivers up to 1856% ROI compared to cloud storage
- Offers 501% ROI over traditional HDDs
HPE LTO cartridges minimize power and cooling requirements, making them a greener, more sustainable solution for long-term data retention.
Built for Reliability and Longevity
- Uncorrectable Bit Error Rate (UBER) of 1×10²⁰ for LTO-9—100,000 times more reliable than enterprise SATA HDDs
