Tape Libraries

Explore enterprise-grade IBM tape libraries at Data Tech Computer — scalable, automated backup and archiving solutions featuring LTO Ultrium technology. These libraries provide high-capacity, reliable, secure, and cost-effective offline storage for large-scale data protection, disaster recovery, long-term retention, compliance, and ransomware air-gap strategies. Supporting LTO-1 through LTO-9 formats, IBM tape libraries deliver massive capacity (up to petabytes), fast throughput, and advanced features like encryption, WORM, LTFS, and partitioning — ideal for IBM Power Systems, x86 servers, and major backup software environments.
