	LTO - About the Technology
		LTO technology is an "open format" technology, which means that users will have multiple sources of product and media.
		The "open" nature of LTO technology also provides a means of enabling compatibility between different vendors' offerings.
		The Ultrium format is the "high capacity" implementation of LTO technology.

	DSstar: LTO ULTRIUM FORMAT BUCKS STORAGE TREND
		The LTO technology is designed to offer value to users as much for its open standard and solid roadmap as for its high capacity, performance and reliability.
		LTO technology is being used to help manage and protect the ever increasing amounts of data that pressure backup and restore windows as well as to support the ability of users to reliably archive storage for regulatory requirements and reference data.
		The LTO Ultrium format Generation 2's storage capacity and data transfer speed are among the highest in the industry at 400GB (assuming 2:1 compressed) cartridge capacity, with drive data transfer speeds of up to 70MBps (assuming 2:1 compression).

	LTO - News - Toolbox - White Paper
		LTO technology is the only tape format that is not controlled by a single company, so it is an exceptionally open tape format.
		LTO technology also enables IS to separate the decision to buy media, i.e., tape cartridge, from the decision to buy the tape mechanism, i.e., tape drive, from the decision to buy tape automation, e.g., a tape library.
		A four-generation LTO Ultrium roadmap (Figure 1) shows that both native capacity and native transfer rate — approximately — are expected to increase rapidly over the course of the next three generations.

	Sun.Star Pampanga - Cervantes: Smelling rats at LTO, LTFRB
		In the provinces where LTO officials have been referring vehicle owners to private sector possessors of such equipment, the fee is P300.
		Fortunately, amid escalating protests from public utility vehicle drivers, LTO chief Roberto Lastimoso has ordered the lowering of fees for gas emission tests from P60 to P40 for tricycles and from P300 to P90 for jeepneys throughout the country amid a transport strike that paralyzed this city last week.
		Lastimoso relayed his order by telephone to Central Luzon LTO director Jesus Vitug who was attending a dialogue with thousands of striking jeepney and tricycle drivers who blocked the MacArthur highway in front of the local LTO building in Barangay Sto.

	Four Hundred Stuff--LTO 3 Tape Makes Its Way to Market
		LTO 3 drives support the capability to read all three generations of LTO tapes, but they can only write to LTO 2 and LTO 3 tapes.
		Last year, twice as many LTO drives shipped as SDLT drives (that's 260,000 for LTO, according to the LTO Program, and 123,500 SDLT drives, according to Gartner), and the number of LTO drives shipped doubled from the previous year.
		This is how companies like GST, eStorage, and StorageTek obtain LTO technologies, although these companies sometimes source their drives from the other two LTO vendors.

	LTO-3 bounces in ahead of schedule \| The Register
		Quite how long LTO can keep this lead is uncertain though - Quantum's SDLT-1200 is due in the next few months, with 600GB of raw capacity and perhaps twice that once you add data compression.
		Corrao adds that while the LTO companies have to maintain media compatibility, there is nothing to stop them innovating in other areas.
		He cites four specific Certance LTO features: Mediashield to keep dust and debris away, so the media lasts longer; Dynamic Powerdown to avoid snapping the tape if there is a power failure; SmartVerify verify-while-write technology; and 13 available write speeds, so the drive can adjust to match the host server and avoid 'shoe-shining'.
