“BACKUP READY” SOLUTION

3 YEAR RAPID EXCHANGE WARRANTY

Quantum’s LTO-3 Half-Height tape drive provides excellent performance while offering up to 400GB of native capacity. Its simple half-height form factor and SCSI or SAS interface option allow easy installation and integration into your datacenter. The LTO-3 HH tape drive is backward read and write compatible with LTO-2 media and backward read compatible with LTO-1 media.

Quantum’s FastSense™ feature maximizes the transfer rates of the LTO-3

HH tape drives by using a multiple speed sensor that matches the speed at which the drive is streaming data to optimize the backup cycle. This helps prevent the “back-hitching” that slows down many tape drives if the computer system cannot transfer data fast enough. In addition,

Quantum adds features like SmartVerify™ to concurrently verify all data written to the tape, virtually eliminating the time consuming verify pass during backup operations. And, an advanced cooling design helps provide extended tape life.

The LTO-3 HH is available in a server-installable internal, convenient tabletop or space-efficient rackmount configuration. Quantum “Backup

Ready” certified solutions allow you to go from box-to-backup in minutes with the highly reliable Quantum LTO-3 HH tape drive, worldclass Backup Exec™ QuickStart software and durable Quantum media.
