• LTO 5 Ultrium 3TB WORM Data Cartridge offers reliable data protection, ensuring full use of capacity and better ROI • Use only with LTO-5 Drives • HP LTO-5 Ultrium tape drive technology uses a linear format of 1,280 tracks, writing 16 tracks simultaneously, at a 280MB-per-second transfer rate • The data is written in a serpentine pattern • The tape reverses direction after each set of 16 tracks is written • Superior smart grabber mechanism and mechanical interlock prevent the leader pin from being pulled inside the tape housing (a key weakness of DLT media) • Sensors detect proper connection and prevent leader loss that would ruin the tape • Rewritable LTO-5 cartridge also offers data encryption for enhanced data security and simplified tape path to reduce wear and tear
