Maxell LTO Ultrium 3 - 400GB/800GB

Maxell LTO Ultrium 3 - 400GB/800GB Overview

Maxell's LTO Ultrium 3 cartridge employs one of Maxell's latest innovations, NeoSMART Technology. NeoSMART (Super Maximum-capacity Advanced Reliability Tape) integrates seven leading-edge technologies in the manufacturing of ultra high capacity magnetic tape media. NeoSMART technologies consists of: fine metal particles, advanced dispersion, ultra-thin coating, superior calendering, highly precise slitting, precision servo track writing, and high-performance cartridges. One of the key components of NeoSMART is Maxell's NanoCAP (Nano Composite Advanced Particles) technology. NanoCAP particles provide extraordinary tape performance as compared to conventional magnetic particles, with superior coercivity and extremely high saturation magnetization.

Maxell LTO 3 Ultrium Tape, also know as Linear Tape-Open, delivers superior data storage performance across a broad range of applications, including data interchange, network server backup/restore/archival, library automation, and near-online data access. Its "open" technology provides for multiple sources for media and drives, allowing purchasing options for end users.

The embedded 4KB LTO-CM (cartridge memory) stores both user and system generated data for high speed data searches and library cartridge management. The proprietary cartridge locking mechanism prevents tape movement and slack during transportation and storage.
