In a global financial services firm, Q2078MC-LTO-7 ULTRIUM TYPE M 22.5 TB RW CART CSTM LIBRARY PK NO CASE PL-7A is deployed in an automated tape library to store 7 years of transaction logs under SEC and FINRA mandates. With 22.5 TB native capacity and WORM support, the solution cuts on-disk archive costs by 60% while ensuring rapid e-discovery retrieval and audit-ready, tamper-proof records.
A manufacturing enterprise replicates mission-critical system backups weekly to offsite vaults using Q2078MC-LTO-7 ULTRIUM TYPE M 22.5 TB RW CART CSTM LIBRARY PK NO CASE PL-7A. Delivering up to 300 MB/s native throughput, the tape library achieves a one-hour RPO and sub-four-hour RTO, minimizing production downtime and safeguarding intellectual property at a fraction of online storage costs.
A post-production studio integrates Q2078MC-LTO-7 ULTRIUM TYPE M 22.5 TB RW CART CSTM LIBRARY PK NO CASE PL-7A into a robotic tape library to archive 4K/8K raw footage. Leveraging 22.5 TB capacity and up to 750 MB/s compressed throughput, ingest times fall 50%, NAS capacity is freed, and long-term storage expenses drop by 70%, accelerating project delivery.

Type M LTO-7 cartridges delivered impressive capacity gains.
Consistent performance in high density libraries.
Worked flawlessly in extended backup jobs.
Reliable option for modern LTO-7 deployments.
Excellent media quality for enterprise archives.
The LTO-7 Type M cartridge delivers 9 TB of native storage and up to 22.5 TB with 2.5:1 hardware compression.
Type M refers to extended-capacity LTO-7 media that increases the native capacity beyond standard LTO-7 limits when used in compatible drives.
The Q2078MC cartridge is a read/write (RW) tape, allowing data to be overwritten and reused for ongoing backup and archiving.
LTO-7 Type M cartridges are compatible with LTO-7 drives and libraries with firmware support for Type M; standard LTO-7 drives without Type M support can read only.
