LTO Tape Drives
Low-cost, simple, and easy to deploy offline backup solution for small IT environments
As data continues to grow, and cyber threats continue to escalate, your customers need a simple and dependable way to keep data protected. Backing up data using the backup best practice rule such as 3-2-1-1–3 copies of your data, in 2 different forms of media, 1 copy offsite (cloud) and 1 copy offline (on-prem tape) – is crucial for every organisation, no matter what the size of the budget or the IT staff is.
Quantum's LTO tape drives are an ideal solution for backing up small data sets to tape and are available in a variety of form factors such as tabletop and rack mounted.

Entry-level, automated tape storage ideal for small businesses and remote office environments
Data growth does not limit itself to larger datacentres. Smaller datacentres face the same challenges of protecting terabytes of data from loss, malware, and potential damage to facilities in central and remote locations and limited IT staff.
Tape storage is the perfect backup and archive media to address all the retention, protection and compliance requirements SMB’s have —it is also economical, portable, and it provides air-gapped protection against ransomware. With tape storage, you can manage backups and long-term data in a simple to install and operate 2U rack-mounted automated tape system that can be left unattended or easily managed by IT staff with limited tape library training to deliver strong offline data protection to meet all compliance requirements.
Scalar Tape Libraries
Entry-level, automated tape storage ideal for small businesses and remote office environments
Quantum Scalar Tape Libraries start as small as three rack units and 25 slots and can scale as large as over 20 racks in size. Every module offers Capacity-on-Demand (CoD) licensing, with configurable designs to accommodate data growth.
Delivering the Most Secure Tape Systems – A Key Part of Cyber Resilient Infrastructures
Tape has emerged as a critical part of building cyber-resilient infrastructures, particularly for long-term archives, cold storage, and backup data. Tape is inherently more secure than flash (SSD) or disk-based (HDD) storage because of the nature of tape, but even tape systems can be made more secure. That is why Quantum developed the Scalar Security Framework, which is a comprehensive security framework that controls system access, provides system monitoring and event detection, data security and encryption, and unique features for cyber protection and data integrity.
When it comes to data integrity and cyber protection, Quantum Scalar Tape systems offer three specific features that provide increasing levels of security for protecting data stored on tape.
