TURTLE Data Storage / Transport Case
Perm-A-Store, Inc. is the worlds leading manufacturer of permanent storage cases for vital computer backup tapes, brand name "Turtle". The name was chosen because the cases have a hard shell on the outside that protects vital information on the inside. Plus, the Box Turtle is the official state reptile of Kansas where the Turtle cases are manufactured.
Due to the unique patented design and functionality, the leading computer tape amd media manufacturers will only recommend Turtles to their customers. They include IMATION, BASF, and IBM just to name a few. Because making Turtle data storage and transport cases is our only business, we know what is important to protect your backup tapes. Perm-A-Store works daily with the tape manufacturers to determine the most critical problems that could affect the function of any backup tape. We know what it takes to properly store and transport media safely.
Protection against impacts, temperature, E.S.D.(Electro Static Discharge) and particle contamination are some of the benefits of a Turtle. Perm-A-Store developed the concept of temperature protection so if a large data or media center must recover from a disaster of any type, their data will be in perfect condition and ready to run. See our Master Turtle line for the ultimate in media protection. Tape cases are available for DLT, 4mm, 8mm, LTO Ultrium, Magstar, Optical and most other backup tapes and cartridges.

The Ultrium LTO tape format is the implementation of the LTO (Linear Tape Open) Technology that is optimized for high capacity and performance with exceptional reliability in either a stand-alone or an automated environment. It uses a single reel cartridge to maximize capacity. Ideally suited for backup, restore, and archive applications, the Ultrium tape format will establish a new benchmark for large volume backup and archive. Ultrium products will meet the needs of the enterprise through single-server user on a roadmap, or migration path, that extends well into the next decade.
Benefits of the LTO Format
High Native Capacity
Ultrium 1 allows for 200GB capacity (2:1 compression) in a single compact cartridge. The cartridge is smaller than existing single-reel tape cartridges.
Ultrium 2 allows for 400GB capacity (2:1 compression) in a single compact cartridge. The cartridge is smaller than existing single-reel tape cartridges.
Ultrium 3 allows for 800GB capacity (2:1 compression) in a single compact cartridge. The cartridge is smaller than existing single-reel tape cartridges.
High Native Data Rate
Ultrium 1 provides for data transfer rates of 15-30 MB/ second (2:1 compression) for the first generation of the 8-channel version.
Ultrium 2 provides for data transfer rates of 30-60 MB/ second (2:1 compression) for the first generation of the 8-channel version.
Ultrium 3 provides for data transfer rates of 68-136 MB/ second (2:1 compression).
LTO-CM (Cartridge Memory)
Enhances functionality by providing a redundant file log as well as user defined information. An external reader allows immediate access to that information without having to insert the cartridge into a drive.
LTO Technology
Ultrium takes advantage of LTO Technology's proven error correction and data compression techniques.
Flexibility
By specifying only those features needed for interchange of tape cartridges, the Ultrium format retains flexibility. This flexibility allows for a substantial amount of implementation freedom with respect to performance characteristics, form factor, reliability, controllers, and interfaces — while tape cartridges remain interchangeable among Ultrium tape drives.
Consistent Servo
The servo format is expected to remain consistent throughout the life of the product line. This major benefit enables manufacturers to leverage investments.
Multi-sourcing
Multiple sources for media and drives reduce production bottlenecks and also ensures investment protection for OEMs and end users alike.
Compliance Testing
By an independent organization promotes compliance to the specification. This shortens qualification cycles and simplifies future product planning for Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs).
