MR-L3MQN-01-T Overview

MR-L3MQN-01-T-Quantum LTO-3 Ultrium 400/800GB Tape The Quantum LTO-3 Ultrium tape cartridge offers cutting-edge technology for assuring error-free and efficient data storage. Featuring a native capacity of 400GB and compressed capacity of 800GB, this LTO (Linear Tape-Open) Generation 3 media is designed to deliver superior performance and reliability for modern data protection requirements. With a native transfer speed of up to 80 MB/s and a compressed transfer rate of up to 160 MB/s, the Quantum LTO-3 tape is ideal for enterprise backup, long-term archiving, and regulatory compliance tasks where data integrity and quick restoration are critical.

This standard cartridge type features a tape length of 680 meters, supports Write Once Read Many (WORM) technology for regulatory compliance (with WORM version), and utilizes advanced error correction for efficient, error-free data storage. While LTO-3 media itself does not support hardware encryption (unlike later generations), it is highly compatible with LTO-3 and LTO-4 tape drives for both reading and writing, and can be read by LTO-5 drives as well. The Quantum LTO-3 Ultrium tape is engineered with a magnetic rewritable media type, robust enough for an archival life of up to 30 years, making it perfectly suited for cold storage and offsite backup needs in data centers and compliance-driven industries.
