When backup sets keep growing, media density matters. HPE LTO-9 Ultrium 45TB RW Non Custom Labeled Data Cartridge gives infrastructure teams 18 TB native capacity and up to 45 TB compressed capacity in a single cartridge, reducing the number of tapes needed for full backups, vaulting, and archive rotation. That higher density translates into fewer cartridge swaps, simpler media management, and more efficient use of tape libraries and offsite storage. As rewritable LTO media, it supports repeated backup cycles and remains well suited to organizations that need offline retention for compliance, disaster recovery, and ransomware resilience. For teams standardizing on modern tape infrastructure, LTO-9 offers a strong balance of capacity and operational control. It is especially valuable where storage growth has outpaced older media generations and where every cartridge must justify its place in the backup chain. HPE labeling also supports procurement consistency across enterprise tape environments.
