HPE LTO 9 Tape with Barium Ferrite (BaFe) 45TB RW Data Cartridge, Q2079A

Highest Capacity and Performance of any Comparable Tape Technology

HPE LTO-9 Ultrium data cartridges can write or read data at a blistering 3.6 TB/hour, storing, encrypting, and protecting up to 45 TB on a single cartridge, making it ideal for large-scale, 24×7, mission-critical IT environments (capacity assumes 2.5:1 compression).

A 35% increase in the number of tracks and a 3% increase in bit density has permitted a capacity increase from 30 TB for LTO-8 to 45 TB for LTO-9. From 2,176 tracks for LTO-6 to 8,960 tracks for 9th generation HPE LTO-9 Ultrium 45 TB cartridges (assuming 2.5:1 compression) – an improvement of 311%
