The Imation 66000064619 LTO-3 tape cartridge has a capacity of 400 GB native and 800 GB compressed. It uses the Imation Tera Ångstrom Technology and consequently has a lot better Metal Particle density and orientation thereby allowing for better magnetic media with a significantly smoother surface and a high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), delivering reduced errors and increased productivity and throughput. The Imation 66000064619 has a transfer rate of 80 MB/s native and 160 MB/s compressed. Like all LTO tape media, the Imation 66000064619 also features the LTO-CM (Cartridge Memory) which allows users to access information faster. Unlike other LTO-3 tape cartridges, the Imation 66000064619 has the patented three-spool and corner snap design which makes it more reliable by distributing stress on the tape evenly and preventing dust and other debris from entering. The Imation 66000064619 LTO-3 tape cartridge is capable of lasting for 30 years archival storage and up to 1000000 passes.
