HPE StoreEver MSL6480 Scalable Base Module

What's New

The HPE StoreEver MSL6480 Tape Library now supports LTO-9 technology.
LTO-9 SAS drives are available on a 12 Gb/s interface.

Key Features

� Easy scalability - pay as you grow with the fast, non-disruptive addition of Expansion Modules for expansion of tape slots.

� Start with an 80-slot 6U form-factor Base Library Module, and add up to 6 Expansion Library Modules for a total of 560 slots in a 42U rack form factor

� 25.2PB of total maximum compressed capacity with 560 slots and LTO-9 drives

� Performance scaling from 1 to 42 LTO HH Tape Drives and transfer rates of 300 MB/s per LTO-9 Tape Drive.

� Industry leading storage density to save rack space, floor space, power, cooling and management costs - 13 cartridge slots (585 TB) per 1U of rack space

� Best in class flexibility with up to 20 logical library partitions

� Customer installable, scalable, and serviceable with a color touch control panel and wizards for installation and configuration

� Integrated bar code reader

� Manage multiple HPE Tape Libraries from a single pane of glass with HPE Command View for Tape Libraries (CVTL) software

� Intelligent, proactive and predictive reporting with HPE StoreEver TapeAssure Advanced (licensed feature of CVTL)

� Using the HPE Encryption Kit get the simplest, lowest cost encryption and key management solution available - no additional software required

� Existing customers of MSL 1/8 Autoloader, MSL2024and MSL3040 Tape Libraries can repurpose their drives in the MSL6480 library to leverage their investment

� The HPE extensive interoperability testing means that MSL6480 integrates with industry-leading servers, operating systems and backup software

� Achieve higher levels of availability with data path failover and control path failover.
