TRANSCRIPT

LTO Tape Drive Technology IBM Media
First IBM 726 Tape Unit
At 7,500 cps it was 56 times faster than punch cards
With 100 bpi it could store the equivalent of 35,000 punch cards
100% of the tapes were inspected with a microscope and knife…defects would be cut out and sent back to the manufacturer

Developed in parallel with IBM drives & automation to :
Maximize performance
Tested extensively on IBM drives & automation
IBM’s strong linkage between R&D, Manufacturing, Product Management and Product Field Engineering contribute to quality throughout the product life-cycle.
Provides end-to-end accountability

Strict quality control is exercised throughout tape production and media assembly for IBM Media
Not all drives & media are created equally, certification alone is not a statement of quality.
IBM LTO media, drives and automation successfully pass strict testing that goes beyond LTO specifications
Limited Lifetime Warranty - Free from workmanship in materials for 5 years

LTO 4 800GB Rewritable Cartridge
MTM 3589-011 (P/N 95P4436)
MTM 3589-033 (P/N 95P4450)
High Capacity, high reliability for LTO Ultrium Generation 4 storage environments
800 GB (1.6 TB or 1600 GB with 2:1 compression) physical capacity – Higher capacity per volume requires less library cartridge capacity and helps reduce backup windows by requiring less mounts
Data that is encrypted by LTO Ultrium 4 drives can be stored on both rewritable and WORM media to help maintain data integrity
LTO 4 drives continue to use the LTO Universal Cleaning Cartridge
MTM 3589-004 (P/N 35L2086)
Gen 4
Note: Gen 3 Half-height and Full-height drive use the same media
Generation
New Gen4 data and WORM media
4GB native fiber channel, 3GB SAS, Ultra160 SCSI interfaces
Backwards read & write compatibility - read/write Gen3, read Gen2
Encryption Enabled - 256 AES Encryption ( only for FC and SAS )

32 states have security breach similar legislation (Source: www.Privacyrights.org)
Similar United States legislation has been proposed
Industry organizations are also increasing scrutiny of security procedures.
(Source: Payment Card Industry Security Audit Procedures Version 1)
Over 150 million consumers have been notified of potential security breaches regarding personal information since 2/2005

Protect tape data when removed from the primary data center
Protect tape data generated by a different applications on different systems
Allow access to data after it has arrived at the business continuance site of business partner
Employ a consistent management strategy across different applications ,systems and locations

A powerful tool for protecting information
Data is encrypted by applying an encryption method and a “key”
A common encryption technique is the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES)
Keys are random bit-streams of predetermined lengths
128, 192 and 256 bits
Encrypted data is unreadable without access to the “key”
If encrypted data is exposed, it is generally not considered a security breach
Encryption “Key Management” is managed in the application, at the system level or through the tape library

Why Outboard Encryption in the LTO Gen 4 Tape Drive?
High performance
Encryption in the LTO Gen 4 tape drive (FC and SAS) can be performed at native data rates
Less than 1% performance impact
Minimizes impact on the batch processing window
Lower overall cost
Supports compression and encryption – maintaining media storage efficiency
Eliminates need for unique dedicated appliance hardware or server resources to perform encryption
Builds on proven tape encryption leadership
IBM was industries first tape encryption provider with the TS1120 Tape Drive
