IBM System Storage TS2230 Tape Drive Express Model
High capacity, performance half-height
Linear Tape-Open Tape Drive
- An entry-level Ultrium™ tape solution for the midrange and
network tape storage environments

standards
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™ TS2230 Tape Drive Express LTO3 HH Model—the entry-level
IBM System Storage tape product family offering—is the answer to growing storage
requirements and shrinking backup windows. By leveraging advanced Linear
Tape-Open technology and the half-high format, the TS2230 Tape Drive is suited
for handling the backup, save and restore, and archival data storage needs of a
wide range of small systems.
The System Storage TS2230 Tape Drive Express LTO3 HH Model is an excellent tape
storage solution for businesses requiring backup or low-cost, real-time archival
of their data within a small window of time. The TS2230 has a storage capacity
of up to 800 GB (with 2:1 compression) in conjunction with the IBM TotalStorage®
LTO Ultrium 400 GB data cartridge, which is double the capacity of the Ultrium
2™ technology. Along with its higher capacity, the performance of the TS2230
Tape Drive has more than doubled over the previous generation of half-high LTO
drives in the market for a native data transfer rate of up to 60 MBps. The
TS2230 Tape Drive provides an excellent alternative to slower and smaller
capacity 1/4-inch, 4 mm and 8 mm DLT/SDLT tape drives.

- The
IBM System Storage TS2230 Tape Drive Express LTO3 HH Model is an external
half-high drive incorporating the 3rd generation of IBM LTO technology.
This is an external stand-alone or rack-mountable unit, similar to
previous models of the 3580 full-high drive and is the entry point for the
family of IBM Ultrium tape products. The TS2230 Tape Drive provides an
excellent migration path from digital linear tape (DLT or SDLT), 1/4-in.,
4 mm, or 8 mm tape drives. The TS2330 Express LTO3 HH Model can read and
write LTO Ultrium 2 Data Cartridges and read LTO Ultrium 1 Data
Cartridges.
