The 3580 IBM System Storage TS2350 Tape Drive Express Model S53 (machine type 3580), external stand-alone or rack mountable unit, is designed to offer high capacity and performance for the midrange systems environment. The TS2350 incorporates the Linear Tape-Open (LTO) IBM System Storage Ultrium 5 Full-High Tape Drive, which is designed to provide maximum tape drive throughput native data rate performance of up to 140 MB/sec compared to the IBM TS2240 LTO full-high Tape Drive (Ultrium 4) at up to 120 MB/sec native data transfer rate. In addition, with the use of the IBM LTO Ultrium 5 1.5 TB Data Cartridge, the IBM TS2350 Ultrium 5 Tape Drive provides nearly double the tape cartridge capacity with up to 1.5 TB native physical capacity (3.0 TB with 2:1 compression) compared to previous Ultrium 4 800 GB (1.6 TB with 2:1 compression) Tape Cartridges. IBM Ultrium 5 Tape Drives can read and write LTO Ultrium 4 data cartridges, and can read LTO Ultrium 3 data cartridges. The Ultrium 5 Tape Drive is encryption-capable and designed to support application managed encryption.
