Plasmon’s 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.
