LTO Technology
Before we dive into the details of the C7977AN HP 20PK Non Custom Labeled 6TB(Native) / 15TB(Compressed) LTO7 Ultrium Tape Media Cartridge, it is important to understand the technology that it is built upon. The LTO technology is a magnetic tape data storage technology that was jointly developed by IBM, HP, and Quantum Corporation. LTO technology has been specifically designed to provide high-capacity, high-performance data storage for backup and archiving purposes.
The LTO technology consists of three components: the tape drive, the data cartridge, and the tape media. The tape drive is responsible for reading and writing data to and from the data cartridge. The data cartridge is the physical storage media that holds the data. Finally, the tape media is the magnetic tape that is used to record the data onto the data cartridge.
