Oracle's StorageTek T10000C is the world's fastest and highest capacity tape drive, delivering up to 252 MB/sec and 5 TB, native, making it ideal for data center operations with growing data volumes.
| Feature | Benefit |
|---|---|
| 5 TB native capacity, 5.5 TB with StorageTek Maximum Capacity | Maximize existing library footprint by gaining over 3x the storage capacity with fewer slots and cartridges over the competition |
| Up to 252 MB/sec native sustained data rate (uncompressed). 240 MB/sec full file host data rate (uncompressed) | 50-70% faster performance dramatically reduces backup windows by 33% or more |
| Backward read compatible with StorageTek T10000A and T10000B tape drives | Optimize media investments by utilizing old and new media side by side |
| Large 2 GB buffer cache | Stream data to the cache to alleviate bottlenecks, improve streaming, and nearly eliminate starts, stops and back-hitching |
| Data integrity validation | CRC checks in the tape drive validate that no data was lost in transfer |
| Native FC and FICON compatibility | Connect natively to both open systems and mainframe. |
| StorageTek File Sync Accelerator and StorageTek Tape Application Accelerator | Reduces starts and stops, improving drive performance and reducing wear on the tape drive and media |
| StorageTek Tape Tiering Accelerator | Drive partitioning facilitates optimal placement of data on tape, such that most often accessed data is fastest to access |
| StorageTek In-Drive Reclaim Accelerator | Allows data to be written in gaps on a tape, minimizing reclaim activity and enabling data to be written over expired data |
