In these modern days, businesses around the world depend on their corporative digital data. This data is the most important and sensitive asset of their business, which is to be protected from any sort of damage either from some natural disaster or from human error. Every company relies on this data for expansion of their business. Data administrators need more reliable, durable and outstanding data storage solution for their amplified business data storage requirement. Everyone is looking for such a storage device that can hold today's rapidly increasing digital data traffic with a fast data transfer rate.

LTO data storage tape is a new format of the data storage technology, which is designed by HP, Sony and Maxell. These brands offer very reliable data storage capacity with more preservation of storage data LTO stands for €Linear Tape Open technology' that offers a reliable, durable and cost -effective storage solution. LTO technology has a big share in the data storage industry. Introduction of LTO technology has proved itself the most reliable standard for backup tape storage.

There are 6 generations of these tapes, named as LTO1, LTO2, LTO3, LTO4, LTO5 and LTO6. Among these LTO6 tapes have the highest capacity, efficiency, reliability and a fast transfer rate. These tapes outpace previous generation data media tapes.

LTO6 tapes are sixth generation tapes having ultra-high capacity and are designed especially to provide outstanding performance, reliability, capacity and transfer rate. Sixth generation LTO tapes deliver 2.5 TB of native capacity and 576 GB/hour (160 MB/s) data transfer rate to provide fast data recovery, backup and reduce the disruption from major data loss by any mean. Compressed data media tapes offer even greater performance and efficiency.

Exceptional capacity of these compressed LTO tapes help reduce the number of cartridges and the amount of space, equipment and labor associated with tape based data storage.

HP LTO -6 tapes are capable of storing up to 6.25 TB per cartridge, provide 6GB/s SAS interface allowing direct connection to SAS-based servers. These tapes allow the drive to dynamically adjust the speed of the drive in order to keep drives streaming to maximize.

Sony LTO6 has a native storage capacity of 2.5TB and compressed capacity of 6.25TB with a very high transfer rate of 160 MB/s (native) to 400 MB/s (compressed). These tapes are manufactured with fine magnetic particles and higher thermal stability binder. These can support LTFS and have extra-ordinary feature of Metal particle technology.

Maxell LTO6 enables similar amount of data storage capacity with incorporation of the NeoSMART( Super Maximum capacity Advanced Reliability Tape) technology to enhance benefits of LTO6 tapes.
