IBM Power5 Compatible Internal Tape Drives

Maintain or restore internal tape backup functionality on your IBM Power5 servers with compatible LTO Ultrium tape drives at Data Tech Computer. These internal half-high SAS or SCSI tape drives (primarily LTO-3 and LTO-4, with limited LTO-2 support on older models) are designed for direct installation in supported Power5 systems — such as Power 520 (9405/9406-520), Power 550 (9406-550), Power 570 (9406-570), and Power 595 (9119-595) — using available internal drive bays or SAS/SCSI backplanes. They provide dependable, high-capacity internal backup, archiving, disaster recovery, and compliance storage with backward media compatibility and encryption/WORM support on LTO-4.
