Highlights

• Start with 50 tape slots and scale up to as many as 680 slots.
• Scale up to as many as 24 drives.
• The TranScale architecture let's you upgrade to a larger T-Series Library and preserve your investment by continuing to interchange the expensive library components.
• Interchange the:
  • Power Supplies
  • Drives
  • Interfaces (QIPs)
  • Robotics
  • TeraPacks
• Support mixed media, within a single enclosure, of any combination of LTO, SAIT, and SDLT tape technologies.
• Low power consumption and unmatched storage density

Features and Benefits

• Fortified with BlueScale 10 environment (library's core intelligence), backed by robust data protection with tape and disk libraries.
• BlueScale Encryption supplies hardware-based encryption through QIP or LTO-4 hardware and total key management with no external hardware or software.
• Partitioning through Shared Library Services (SLS) without external hardware or software (Capacity on Demand -COD), which let's you add capacity as long as you need it and when you need it simply by logging onto the Spectra Logic website and requesting a key that you use to enable new slots
• Hot-swap drives and controllers, redundant components, and high-density modular design
• Guaranteed on-time support, including an assisted self-maintenance (ASM) option and AutoSupport
• Observatory, Remote Library Controller (RLC), and graphical touch-screen front panel to simplify library management and use
• Connectivity with Fibre Channel and SCSI drives
• Compatible with all major operating systems, backup software packages, and standard data center racks
• Ground-breaking BlueScale EnergyAudit™ power monitoring feature
• Easy one-step encryption and backup process, BlueScale Encryption, as a standard feature-letting you protect your data using federally-approved AES-256 encryption while backing up your data
• BlueScale Encryption is the only truly integrated encryption for data stored on tape, and lets you seamlessly and affordably add encryption to your backup strategy without changing any existing backup policies and requires no additional hardware or software.
• Helps manage your tape media by giving you the tools to proactively detect potential media errors well before they happen.
• Available only in Spectra Logic's T-Series libraries, the MLM - Media Lifecycle Management records 30 data points every time a tape is loaded, giving you vital statistical and diagnostic information that helps you proactively manage your tape media throughout its life.
• Utilizes Certified Media and Blue Scale interface together so you can manage, track and report all facets of tape usage from creation to retirement - all consolidated within the same application you use to manage the library
