LTO-3 5-Pack for Long-Term Archiving
This five-cartridge pack provides 400 GB native capacity per tape for linear tape-open generation three drives. The media suits organisations that need offline, removable storage for compliance archives or disaster-recovery sets. Each cartridge is new and formatted for immediate use in compatible libraries or standalone drives. The pack simplifies bulk procurement for scheduled backup rotations.
Sustained Write Behaviour on LTO-3 Drives
Native throughput is determined by the drive mechanism rather than the cartridge, so sustained streaming performance matches the drive’s rated speed without early throttling. The tape formulation maintains consistent bit-error rates across the full 400 GB length during long sequential writes. Compressed capacity of 800 GB is achievable when the host application or drive hardware applies lossless compression. Performance scales linearly with drive speed, not with media revision.
Thermal, Acoustic and Power Characteristics
The cartridges are passive media; they generate no heat, noise or electrical draw during operation. Storage at recommended temperature and humidity preserves magnetic integrity for the rated archival life. Each cartridge weighs approximately 7.41 oz, contributing minimal load to automated library mechanisms. Power consumption and cooling remain entirely dependent on the tape drive or library hardware.

Kérdések a termékről
How much heat or noise does an LTO-3 cartridge add when the drive runs all day?
The cartridge itself is passive; it generates no heat or noise. Only the drive mechanism consumes power and produces sound during operation.
What drive or library must I already own to use these LTO-3 cartridges?
You need an LTO Generation 3 tape drive or compatible automation library that accepts LTO Ultrium 3 media.
Will these LTO-3 cartridges work in the older LTO-2 drive I still keep?
An LTO-2 drive cannot write or read LTO-3 cartridges; you need an LTO-3 or later drive for this media.
