Product Description
The Quantum TC-L62AN-EY-C is a high-performance LTO-6 (Linear Tape-Open Generation 6) Half-Height (HH) tape drive, built for robust data backup and archival purposes. It features a SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) 6Gb/s interface, ensuring efficient data transfer and broad compatibility with server infrastructure. This drive is engineered to provide a reliable and scalable solution for organizations managing significant data volumes and requiring secure, long-term storage. With a native storage capacity of 2.50 Terabytes (TB) per LTO-6 cartridge, the TC-L62AN-EY-C offers substantial storage density. When utilizing hardware data compression, which is standard for LTO technology (typically at a 2.5:1 ratio), the effective capacity can reach up to 6.25 TB. This compression capability significantly reduces the need for physical media and lowers overall storage costs, making it an economical choice for large-scale data retention. The drive boasts a native data transfer rate of 160 Megabytes per second (MB/s), enabling swift backup and restore operations. This speed is critical for minimizing backup windows and ensuring business continuity. The Half-Height form factor makes it suitable for integration into various server environments and tape libraries. The LTO-6 standard ensures backward read compatibility with LTO-5 tapes and forward write compatibility with LTO-7 tapes (at LTO-6 performance), providing investment protection and flexibility.
