effectively meet the demanding backup, archival and regulatory compliance requirements of your System
x environments.
The IBM Half High LTO Generation 4 SAS Tape Drive is an excellent tape storage solution for businesses
requiring backup or low-cost, real-time archiving of their data within a small window of time. This fourth
generation drive provides up to twice the storage capacity, up to 1.6 TB with 2:1 compression, and
provides up to a 50% performance increase, up to 240 MBps (864 GB/hr) with 2:1 compression, over the
preceding LTO 3 half height technology. This enterprise data protection offering is available in a 5.25-inch
half-height internal form factor for integration into IBM System x tower servers and external IBM 1U
rack-mount enclosures or a half-height external unit for stand-alone table top or rack shelf applications.

Data security is a growing requirement for businesses of all sizes today. The IBM Half-high LTO
Generation 4 SAS Tape Drive delivers advanced security features to help ensure compliancy with data
security, information disclosure, and privacy regulations for data at rest. Beyond WORM (Write-Once,
Read-Many) cartridge support to preserve data in a non-erasable and non-rewritable format, LTO 4
technology also offers data encryption capabilities. LTO 4 hardware-based data encryption can assist in
safeguarding against costly security breaches and exposure of proprietary data if a data cartridge is
stolen or lost.
