: The HP StorageWorks Ultrium 960 Tape comes with both rewritable and Write-Once, Read-Many (WORM) data cartridges, that prevents accidental or intentional overwrite or erasure of data.

The Ultrium 960 offers 800 GB of compressed capacity and a 160 megabytes-per-second compressed transfer rate. It also provides support for an Ultra320 SCSI interface - making it the world's fastest tape drive for compressible data. It supports WORM data cartridges. WORM tape provides users with the ability to store petabytes of unalterable data for secure offsite storage at a fraction of the cost of disk storage.

The Ultrium 960 also offers an exclusive to HP One-Button Disaster Recovery (OBDR) utility to minimize recovery time in the event of a disaster. Using a single Ultrium 960 tape drive and data cartridge, the firmware-based data protection and disaster recovery feature allows for the restoration of an entire system, including the operating system, configuration, applications, drivers and data files.







HP also offers an exclusive data rate-matching feature with its Ultrium 960 drives. This feature allows the tape drive to adjust its transfer rate to the speed of the host system dynamically and continuously. Data rate matching keeps the data to the drive "streaming," reducing the need to rewind the tape back and forth to wait for the host.

Additionally, each HP StorageWorks Ultrium 960 tape drive ships with a single-server HP OpenView Data Protector version 5.5 license to offer customers the simplicity of a single solution for data backup and WORM storage needs.
