Brand: IBM AS400 iSeries
Model Number: IBM-AGKL-00GH768
Tags: lto7 , 00GH768 , IBM AGKL , ts4300

IBM AGKL has 00GH768 part number and is an LTO7 Fibre Channel Full-High Tape Drive that has a two 8 Gbps interface ports, has a maximum data transfer rate of 800 MB per second and can be installed in an IBM TS4300 Tape Library Model 3555. The IBM AGKL LTO7 Fibre Channel Tape Drive Full-Height Cables are not included and must be ordered separately and are required to attach the TS4300 IBM LTO Tape Library to a host Fibre Channel adapter. The IBM LTO7 Tape Drive is a high-performance, high-capacity tape storage backup and restore device for IBM i, AIX, Linux Power Servers and other open system platforms. IBM Ultrium 7 or LTO7 tape cartridge can store up to 6 TB of uncompressed data or up to 15 TB of compressed data assuming a 2.5 to 1 compression ratio.

IBM LTO7 full height tape drives can connect with two 8 Gb Fibre Channel interfaces and have a maximum 800 MB per second transfer rate and will auto-negotiate to lower speeds. The IBM AGKL LTO7 Fibre Channel Full-High Tape Drive with 00GH768 part number can also be purchased in a half-high format as IBM AGKJ LTO7 Fibre Channel Full-High Tape Drive with 00GH766 part number and also has a 800 MB per second maximum transfer rate. The IBM AGKK LTO7 SAS Tape Drive Half-High with part number 00GH764 has a 600 MB per second maximum transfer rate.

Note: The full-high 00GH814 LTO8 tape drives provide faster data transfer rates than half-high LTO8 tape drives. For instance, 360 MB/s is the maximum native data transfer rate of a FH LTO8, whereas 300 MB/s is the maximum for HH LTO8. Both the HH and FH Ultrium 7 LTO7 tape drives have 300 MB/s maximum transfer rate, and both the HH and FH Ultrium 6 LTO6 tape drives have a 160 MB/s maximum transfer rate.

Note: The actual capacity varies depending on the application, the type of data, and the tape cartridge. 6 TB is typical and 15 TB is possible when the Data Compression setting is activated. The default setting of Data Compression is controlled by the host system. The user and the application software can control the activation or deactivation of the data compression setting. The drive can typically achieve a 2.5:1 compression ratio.
