A NEW dimension
in tape technology

AI is creating data at a scale never seen before. Keeping every dataset on expensive, power-hungry disks simply doesn’t scale. The Lenovo TS4300 and TS2900 Tape Libraries with new IBM LTO-10 are rewriting tape as the most secure and sustainable option for cold data storage.
