Integrates into the following storage environments: Server (non-IBM &
IBM), Automated library, and SAN-attached
Adheres to the widely supported LTO specification which promotes
standardization and allows for multiple media and drive providers
Provides superior performance and capacity attributes for unattended
backup within midrange and enterprise server environments
Offers a choice of either SCSI attachment for direct attachment to a
storage device or; FC attachment which allows multiple servers to be connected
to a single storage device.
Compatible with major operating systems and ISV applications
Uses advanced technologies that optimize throughput, increase cartridge
capacity and provide superior data protection

Ultrium 2 models of the IBM TotalStorage Ultrium External Tape Drive have a
capacity of up to 400 GB with compression (2:1) with the use of the new IBM
TotalStorage LTO Ultrium 200 GB Data Cartridge. IBM Ultrium 2 Tape Drives
can read and write first generation LTO Ultrium Data Cartridges at original
capacities and with improved performance. As your needs grow, you can build
on this storage investment by moving to higher capacity and performance
automated libraries employing the new IBM Ultrium 2 tape drive technology.
With its higher capacity and tape
drive performance that more than doubles up to 35MB/sec native data transfer
rate (70 MB/sec with 2:1 compression), the new IBM Ultrium External Tape
Drive 3580 is an excellent alternative to DLT/SDLT; 1/4-inch, 4mm or 8mm
tape drives. |

|
Advanced features |
| The IBM
TotalStorage Ultrium External Tape Drive 3580 features Ultra 160 SCSI Low
Voltage Differential (LVD) or Ultra SCSI High Voltage Differential (HVD)
interfaces and can attach to IBM and non-IBM servers and workstations that
support these interfaces. As a SCSI-attached tape solution, the IBM Ultrium
External Tape Drive connects to Fibre Channel server adapters through
selected IBM Storage Area Network Data Gateway products.
The IBM 3580 has an LCD display
and indicators for write protection, tape in use, drive cleaning, and data
compression. |
| |
|
Software support |
| You can increase
the power of the IBM TotalStorage Ultrium External Tape Drive by managing it
with tape management solutions such as Tivoli® Storage Manager or other
third party storage software. |
| |
|
Why IBM LTO? |
| LTO is an open
tape architecture developed by a consortium of three world-class storage
producers. IBM Ultrium
drives share best-of-breed technology with advanced multi-track recording
capabilities, magneto-resistive (MR) head and servo technologies, and high
recording densities. Error correction code (ECC) function helps support data
integrity. |
