With volumes of data growing exponentially, the IBM tape drive is designed to help organizations protect and preserve more data for longer periods of time. It sustains rapid, reliable access to data and helps ensure business resilience.
Increased capacity
Rapid data growth compounds the need for increased storage capacity. The tape media delivers high native capacity delivers significantly greater efficiency and performance. The exceptional capacity helps reduce the number of cartridges and the amount of equipment, space and labor associated with tape-based data storage, enabling an outstanding total cost of ownership.
Optimal data security
To comply with regulatory requirements and preserve stakeholder trust, organizations must protect data from unauthorized access and unintentional loss. Tape cartridge portability facilitates remote, offline data storage for superior protection from natural or manmade threats that can impact online or on-site data storage. IBM tape drives offer device-level data encryption to ensure data privacy and reduce the risk of data corruption due to virus or sabotage.
