The Ultrium system is based on the industry’s first open data storage platform. The LTO consortium—comprised of drive manufacturers Hewlett Packard, IBM and Certance (Seagate RSS)—developed this technology to meet the explosive midrange and enterprise storage demands analysts predict over the next decade. The result of this unprecedented collaboration is an exceptionally reliable, high-performance format with an exciting drive migration plan that permits LTO drives to work interchangeably with a host of certified media brands. All Ultrium tape cartridges must meet specific LTO (Linear Tape-Open) standards, but that doesn’t mean they’re all the same. Imation Ultrium Tape Cartridges exceed the required standards and feature numerous innovations and exclusive technologies that truly set them apart from other LTO cartridges. Make sure your data is protected with these proven technologies and innovations that ensure the highest quality.
