Why the M4000

Enterprise archive, engineered to be affordable

Long-retention storage shouldn't mean enterprise-tier capex. The M4000 gives you the air-gapped security and scale of LTO tape at a price built for real budgets.

Enterprise Grade Recertified

Every drive is restored and diagnostically tested to factory specification — precision calibration, head-health verification and firmware optimization. Not "used." Recertified.

576TB in 4U

48 slots of LTO-8 deliver up to 576TB of native capacity in a single 4U rackmount — air-gapped, immutable, and offline-safe against ransomware.

Works With Your Stack

Native 8G Fibre Channel (SAS optional) and universal compatibility with Veeam, NetBackup, Commvault and every major backup and archive platform.
