Alliance Storage Technologies’ UDO media give you the flexibility to meet today’s
diverse archive requirements. The media are available in Rewritable and
two different WORM (Write Once Read Many) formats. All three formats
are offered in 30GB UDO1 and 60GB UDO2 capacities.
True Write Once media use a hardware-based WORM technology to ensure that the
recording surface can not be erased or altered. This provides the highest level
of data authenticity that cannot be matched by tape or disk technologies using
software-based WORM emulation.
Compliant Write Once media has the same operational properties as True Write
Once media with the added ability to physically destroy or “shred” individual
records that have expired. This enables you to meet corporate governance regulations
on data retention and disposition.
Rewritable media allow archive data to be erased and rewritten.
They are ideal for more general archive requirements that demand data
longevity, while allowing older records to be deleted and media space
reclaimed.
Unmatched Media Longevity: A highly stable patented Phase Change
technology delivers media life in excess of 50 years.
High Media Capacity: Blue Laser technology allows unprecedented
media capacities. UDO2 media are 60GB and the roadmap extends to 240GB.
Data Authenticity: Complies with industry and government regulations for immutable
storage.
Removability: UDO media can be easily transported to an offsite location, satisfying
your need for a cost-effective disaster recovery strategy.
Barcodes: Barcode labels provide automated identification and tracking of individual
pieces of media.
