LTO-10 and the Roadmap Ahead - Addressing your Storage Needs
LTO-10 Release and will it be backward compatible
LTO technology is currently in its 9th generation with a twenty year history of providing secure, reliable storage for Enterprises and organisations across the world. LTO-9 specifications support tape cartridge storage compressed capacity of up to 45 TB, and tape drive data transfer rates of up to 1000MB per second for 3.6 terabytes of storage performance per hour and per drive.
New generations have been introduced regularly with higher capacity and transfer rates along with new features to further protect your data and content. LTO specifications for backward compatibility up to generation seven of the technology is to write back one generation and read back two generations. The later 8th and 9th generations of LTO Ultrium tape drives are able to write back and read back one generation’.
Currently LTO-10 Fully Height (FH) Drives are rumored to
be released by the 4th quarter of 2025, however backward compatibility has not
been determined and we are hearing rumblings that it may not be backward
read/write compatible at all. Remember, this is FH only, which are much more
expensive, the standard Half-Height (HH) drives will more likely be 4th Quarter of 2026!
Capacities are expected to be up to 36TB Native and up to 90TB Compressed.
