■ Drives
Refer to your drive publications and the vendor Web sites for a detailed discussion of
drives and cartridges.
The library supports the following drives:
• Ultrium Linear Tape-Open (LTO) drives
LTO technology was developed by IBM, Hewlett-Packard, and Seagate to provide a
clear and viable choice in an increasingly complex array of tape storage options. LTO
is an “open format’ technology, which means that users will have multiple sources of
product and media. The open nature of LTO technology also provides a means of
enabling compatibility among different vendor’s offerings.
- Hewlett-Packard’s LTO 1, LTO 2, and LTO 3
- IBM’s LTO 1, LTO 2, and LTO 3
- Quantum’s (Certance) LTO 2 and LTO 3
