Features:

Provide long-term data retention with efficient management capabilities

Management solutions like IBM Storage Protect, or third-party storage management software, can extend the power of the IBM TS2290 Tape Drive.

Enable intuitive and graphical access to data with IBM Storage Archive

IBM Storage Archive supports tape-oriented linear tape file system (LTFS). This serves to reduce complexity by enabling access to the tape drive’s contents through a graphical user interface in the file manager of the user’s device’s operating system.

Store up to 45 TB of data with next-generation LTO Ultrium 9 technology

IBM TS2290 Tape Drive supports the LTO Consortium compression specification for LTO Ultrium 9, offering up to 45 TB of data storage per cartridge (18 TB native)—150% of the compressed capacity of previous LTO Ultrium 8 cartridges.
