Did you know

LTO Generation 5 tape drives feature hardware-based data encryption capabilities and support write

once, read many (WORM) cartridges to help protect your data. WORM cartridges allow you to store vital

data in a non-erasable, non-rewritable format, while AES256 hardware encryption can securely store data

to help ensure compliancy with data security, information disclosure, and privacy regulations for data at

rest.

This drive is also the first LTO generation to introduce Media Partitioning & IBM Linear Tape File System,

which allows LTO Gen 5 media to be divided into segments, improving accessibility by providing the

ability to quickly locate data to retrieve or update.
