HP 460 LTO Ultrium Tape Drive
HP 460

The HP 460 LTO Ultrium tape drive is the next generation of HP's Ultrium family, delivering a 400 GB capacity (assuming 2:1 data compression) on a single cartridge. Reinforcing Hp's leadership position in tape, it builds on the success of the HP Ultrium 230 and HP Ultrium 215 drives, providing unprecedented levels of performance, capacity and reliability and setting new standards in the superdrive tape market. With a transfer rate of 60 MB/sec, the HP 460 LTO Ultrium is the ideal choice for enterprise-class data protection needs, particularly where the backup window is shrinking.

Features & Benefits
  • Stores 400 GB in under 2 hours (assuming 2:1 data compression)
  • Evolution from the very successful first generation of Ultrium tape drives
  • Lowest cost per GB of any tape drive
  • Cartridge memory helps to improve media management and reliability
  • Successfully tested with a broad range of servers, operating systems and backup packages
