Dell LTO-9 Ultrium Data cartridge 18TB/45TB (OCMXWO) - Local Warranty

High-Capacity Backup with Dell LTO-9 Ultrium Cartridge
The Dell LTO-9 Ultrium Data Cartridge is engineered for large-scale data environments demanding speed, reliability, and security. With a native capacity of 18TB and compressed capacity of up to 45TB, the OCMXWO model is ideal for data centers, cloud infrastructure backups, and enterprise archiving. It provides a significant leap in performance over previous generations, ensuring faster and more efficient data protection.

Designed for Speed and Efficiency
With transfer rates reaching up to 1,000MB/s (compressed), Dell’s LTO-9 cartridge drastically reduces backup windows. It also features 256-bit AES hardware-based encryption, safeguarding sensitive data against unauthorized access. This is crucial for businesses in regulated industries such as finance, government, and healthcare where secure storage is non-negotiable.

Seamless Integration into Modern LTO Systems
The OCMXWO is fully compatible with LTO-9 Ultrium tape drives for read/write operations. While it does not support backward compatibility with LTO-8 cartridges, it supports LTO-9's enhanced capacity, durability, and partitioning capabilities—enabling LTFS (Linear Tape File System) for better file access and manageability in modern tape workflows.

Reliable Long-Term Archival Storage
Built for longevity, Dell’s LTO-9 cartridge is designed to withstand up to 20,000 load/unload cycles and one million head passes. Its robust housing and anti-static components ensure reliable performance even in harsh data center conditions. It’s the go-to solution for offsite storage, compliance archiving, and high-volume digital content preservation.
