Imation is a leading manufacturer of backup media products. The Imation LTO 3 tape is the most economical solution to meet the demanding requirements pertaining to data archival & retention. Imation LTO3 ultrium format has a robust media which enables it to deliver remarkable data throughput with unmatched efficiency. Imation has developed three LTO-3 tape cartridges 17532, 17534 and 17533. Imation has focused on regulatory compliance; therefore it has included the WORM technology in its LTO-3 tape format. The write once read-many functionality is engineered to serve those archival applications that require the critical recorded information to remain unchanged during its retention time period. This critical information includes documents like certification documents, financial documents, E-mails etc. There is only one way to erase the information from the WORM tapes which is called “degaussing” meaning that the recorded information is secured and will be readily available when it is required.

Uncompressed 400 GB data can be recorded precisely onto the Imation 17532 tape cartridge at a remarkable rate of 80MB/second. The transfer rate of Imation LTO-3 format doubles with compressed data and so does its recording capacity reaching 800GB. LTO-3 WORM does not allow and alteration to the data once it has been recorded onto the tape cartridge making it the most ideal tape technology for backing up valuable documents. Imation 17532 LTO3 efficiently secures the precious data at lowest cost per GB. The Imation tape format’s information is stored in the cartridge memory and its servo pattern. The LTO3 tape drive reads this information to distinguish between WORM and non-WORM backup tape media.

The demands for data protection are increasing rapidly and Imation LTO3 tape media has the latest features to satisfy these demands. Imation LTO-3 is a scalable and highly durable backup storage medium which serves its users with unparalleled performance and increased storage capacity. LTO tape format has the biggest share in backup tape storage market and continues to increase its share in the market. The data reliability and data security features of Imation 17532 ultrium tape are unparalleled. WORM further elevates the security level offered by Imation LTO-3 tape format. Tera Angstrom technology has enabled the Imation 17532 LTO-3 tape to pack massive data volumes with high level of data reliability. Imation LTO-3 ultrium technology ensures highest level of data reliability with low operational costs.

Long-term data integrity offered by Imation LTO3 technology is best suited for those enterprises that have to handle large data volumes at a fast data rate. Its backup solutions are very economical thus enhancing overall efficiency. Imation LTO 3 backup tapes offer more recording capacity, highest level of security and long durable life thus protecting the user’s investment. Data from the WORM LTO tapes can be removed through degaussing. The shelf life of Imation LTO3 tapes is thirty years. Imation LTO-3 technology allows easy integration into the high demanding I.T environments.
