Overview LTO 8 delivers impressive storage capacity of 12.0/30.0TB native/compressed, unrivaled reliability and rock-solid air gap security. Use less energy, store more data, and get more done with the next generation of our data tape Data Transfer SpeedsAs the recording density has improved, the transfer rate has risen to 300MB/second native, almost two times that of the media in the past. Data can be efficiently managed because it can be written or read more quickly than before. The transfer rate of LTO tapes can be expected to increase in the future. Save Cost – EconomicalThe new LTO tape can save data over 30 years or longer with its high capacity. Tape storage excels in cost-effectiveness in that its per-capacity price is low and that it hardly consumes power to save data. The total cost of backing up 28 TB a year or 140 TB over 5 years can be kept to about 1/4 compared to hard disk. Both capacity and transfer rate contribute to saving cost from less hardware investment. Save Data – SafetyTape media that can be managed offline and is portable is ideal for storage at a remote location. It has little risk of being damaged or losing data due to a system failure or virus, meaning important data can be saved safely and securely. Save Future – Future Road MapMagnetic tapes are expected to increase in capacity in the future as high-density recording is pursued. At present, a road map toward native capacity of 48 TB (LTO 10) is planned for LTO tapes.
