USED HP STORAGEWORKS ULTRIUM 448 TAPE DRIVE


Overview

The HP StorageWorks Ultrium 448 Tape Drive based on second generation LTO technology is positioned as the affordable tape backup solution providing mid-range customers with the best mix of features and value today and in the future for protecting data on their mid-range SCSI and Serial Attached SCSI (SAS)-based servers. The Ultrium 448 Tape Drive delivers a compressed storage capacity of 400 GB per data cartridge using LTO 2 media. By doubling the capacity of the current half-height HP Ultrium 232 Tape Drive, customers will now use fewer data cartridges to meet their storage needs, reducing their IT costs and increasing their return on investment. Capable of backing up half a terabyte of storage in 2.5 hours, the fast performance of the Ultrium 448 is enhanced by HP’s exclusive dynamic data rate matching feature which can match the throughput of the host. The Ultrium 448 Tape Drive is fully read and write compatible with all first and second-generation Ultrium drives and media.

Multiple drive models are available for the compact, half-height Ultrium 448 Tape Drive including internal drives, external (tabletop) drives, and a 1U preconfigured rack-mount model. New SAS-based models allow for direct connect to SAS servers via embedded SAS controller or SAS Host Bus Adapter (HBA). All HP tape drives include, HP StorageWorks Data Protector Express Software Single Server Edition for backup/recovery, support for HP StorageWorks One-Button Disaster Recovery (OBDR), and the HP StorageWorks Library and Tape Tools (L&TT). These features combined with low pricing make the Ultrium 448 Tape Drive the ideal direct-attach and network backup solution for mid-range servers where capacity and low cost of ownership are critical.
