Planning
Edit online
The LTO tape drive requires an environment able to accommodate the appropriate space, power, location, and other technical specifications. Use this section as a
reference for onsite requirements to allow for optimum operation of the drive.
Acclimation
Tape storage equipment must be gradually acclimated to the surrounding environment to prevent condensation.
Location requirements
Information for planning the installation and layout of your LTO tape drive, including various specifications for optimal performance.
Host requirements
The drive is supported by a wide variety of servers, operating systems, and adapters. Many ways to determine the servers and software that supports this drive are
available.
