Is Quantum LTO-10 data tape still used?

Quantum LTO-10 data tapes, also often called Quantum LTO-10 storage tapes or Quantum LTO-10 backup tapes, are still widely used as storage mediums, even with the popularity of more modern storage technologies like NVMe SSDs, including cloud storage options.

Even today, Quantum LTO-10 data tape is considered the most cost-effective storage medium, especially for storing inactive data (that is no longer needed to be frequently sent/received.)

This is because Quantum LTO-10 storage data tape offers a larger storage capacity when compared to regular hard drives (and the more expensive SSDs) with the same price.

Not to mention, Quantum LTO-10 data tape is much more durable with a longer average life span than standard hard drives. HDDs only have an average lifespan of around 3 to 5 years, and SSDs have a slightly longer lifespan of between 5-10 years. Most Quantum LTO-10 data tape manufacturers, on the other hand, quote the lifespan of data stored within Quantum LTO-10 data tapes as 30 years (assuming ideal storage conditions.)

Quantum LTO-10 data tapes are also relatively easier to store and transport due to their compact sizes.

However, Quantum LTO-10 data tape has a much slower transfer rate than hard drives and especially SSDs, so it is more geared towards storing inactive data rather than critical data used in day-to-day operations that require frequent data transfers.

 

Is Quantum LTO-10 tape cheaper than a hard drive? How much does Quantum LTO-10 data tape cost?

Quantum LTO-10 data tapes are considered the most cost-effective storage medium for storing large and inactive data. Quantum LTO-10 data tape storage has the lowest price per volume among all storage media.

For example, today, in July 2022, we can get a 12 TB (30 TB compressed) LTO-10 Ultrium data tape that costs just around $70, resulting in a $ 0.0058/GB cost. On the other hand, a 12 TB NAS HDD costs around $210, 3 times more expensive. 

Not to mention, since Quantum LTO-10 data tape storage consumes power only when the backup is being executed, there is almost zero power consumption while idling and almost no cost to maintain the Quantum LTO-10 data tape system.

In short, Quantum LTO-10 data tape is much cheaper than a hard drive when it comes to the total cost of ownership (TOC) after considering the total hardware, power consumption, facility, and maintenance costs.

 

Is Quantum LTO-10 tape still the best option for backups?

Due to the most cost-effective unit price per capacity, Quantum LTO-10 data tape is the best option for backups and handling storage of inactive data in general. The higher the number of Quantum LTO-10 data tape cartridges, the lower the unit price of the entire system will be, making it even more cost-effective the larger your data backup volume goes.

Besides cost-efficiency, magnetic data date media are the best option for backups due to their safety and reliability. Quantum LTO-10 data tape has very low risks of data loss due to virus attacks, power outages, or crashes, making it an ideal option for storing inactive data safely for a long time.

 

How long do Quantum LTO-10 data tapes last?

Many manufacturers' data sheets claim that Quantum LTO-10 data tapes could last up to 30 years. However, obviously, the practical life expectancies of Quantum LTO-10 data tape would vary depending on the storage environment condition, read/write volume, and other factors.

Nevertheless, on average, Quantum LTO-10 data tape is designed for 15 to 30 years of data storage. Ideally, they should be stored at a temperature between 61 and 77 °F (16 and 25 °C) and between 20 – 50% RH in humidity.

 

How many times can Quantum LTO-10 data tape be used?

This will depend on the type and brand of Quantum LTO-10 data tape, but most Quantum LTO-10 data tapes can sustain 200 to 364 full file passes.

In Quantum LTO-10 data tapes, one full pass refers to writing enough data to fill an entire Quantum LTO-10 tape, which can take between 44 and 208 end-to-end passes.

For example, Quantum LTO-10 data tapes have expected tape durability of 20,000 end-to-end passes and would require 208 end-to-end passes for a full pass.

 

How much data does Quantum LTO-10 data tape hold?

Quantum LTO-10 data tapes have 12 TB uncompressed data capacity and 30 TB compressed capacity, while the newest LTO-9 data tapes have 18 TB uncompressed and 45 TB compressed data capacity.
