IBM System Storage TS2340 Tape Drive Express Model
Today, data is a key corporate asset in all types of businesses. The
ability to access data quickly and reliably is critical to your
success. Whether your business utilizes a high-performance network
server or individual workstations, archiving and retrieving data in a
dependable and consistent manner is mission critical. The IBM System Storage™
TS2340 Tape Drive—the entry-level IBM System Storage tape product
family offering—is the answer to growing storage requirements and
shrinking backup windows. Incorporating the latest generation of
advanced Linear Tape-Open™ (LTO) technology, the TS2340 Tape Drive is
suited for handling the backup, save and restore, and archival data
storage needs of a wide range of small systems. In addition, the TS2340
provides added security features by supporting encryption of data with
3 Gbps SAS connectivity. The System Storage TS2340 Tape
Drive is an excellent tape storage solution for businesses requiring
backup or low-cost, real-time archival storage of their data within a
small window of time—it offers high-capacity and performance to help
address the most demanding requirements. The TS2340 has a physical
storage capacity of up to 1.6 TB (with 2:1 compression) in
conjunction with the new IBM Ultrium 800 GB data cartridge,
which provides up to double the capacity of the Ultrium 3
technology. Along with its higher capacity, the data transfer
performance of the TS2340 Tape Drive has increased over the previous
generation for a native data transfer rate of up to 120 MBps. The
TS2340 Tape Drive continues to provide an excellent alternative to
slower and smaller capacity 1/4-inch, 4 mm and 8 mm DLT/SDLT
tape drives
