Overview:
Seventh-generation LTO Ultrium, half-height tape drive
IBM® TS2270 Tape Drive is designed to meet growing storage requirements and shrinking backup windows, providing an excellent storage solution for organizations requiring backup, save/restore, and low-cost archival data storage.
Highlights
- Get improved capacity over previous generations
- Provide data protection and support media partitioning
- Meet compliance requirements with hardware encryption and WORM support
Features:
Media partitioning and IBM Storage Archive
Designed to support media partitioning, the TS2270 tape drive offers the ability to create two partitions on the LTO Ultrium 7 media. Partitioning enables IBM Storage Archive, which improves the ability to reference small sections of data on tape. It also helps with interchange of data between different platforms.
Higher capacity
Physical storage capacity up to 15 TB addresses the most demanding backup and archiving requirements. The higher capacity helps reduce the number of cartridge changes required for backup operations and reduces the physical storage requirements for backup and archive media.
Native data transfer rate of up to 300 MB/s
A transfer rate of up to 300 Mbps with 6 Gbps SAS interface connectivity provides significantly improved data transfer performance to help address the demands of shrinking backup windows and to enable faster data read and write—reducing long waits for backup and restore procedures to keep your organization up and running.
Benefits:
Lower overall storage costs
The TS2270 tape drive provides long-term backup and archive storage data protection while lowering overall storage costs.
Improve energy efficiency
With significant increase in data transfer performance over the previous LTO Ultrium half-height generation, the TS2270 offers transfer rate of up to 300 Mbps with 6 Gbps SAS interface connectivity.
Simplify data management
Simplify data management with IBM® Storage Archive™ utilizing IBM Linear Tape File System™ technology, and LTO Ultrium 7 technology designed to support media partitioning and data encryption.
Protect infrastructure investment
TS2270 tape drive incorporates the latest generation of industry-leading LTO technology (LTO Ultrium generation 7), offering higher storage capacity & higher data transfer rates for long-term tape infrastructure investment protection.
