The Scalar 100 is a
mid-range library that offers a powerful combination of industry-leading
density, trouble-free scalability, and advanced storage networking
technology.
This capacity-packed system is the first tape library to deliver a storage
density of 1TB per rack unit. In fact, a standard rack cabinet can hold
three Scalar 100s, giving you up to 43TBs of capacity in a very compact
space.
Highly scalable, the Scalar 100 can grow from 15 to 96 tapes and from 1 to 8
drives. Adding capacity is easy. Upgrades take less than 10 minutes and
don’t require changing your rack system or adding external elevators or
pass-through ports.
The Scalar 100 also gives you enterprise-class storage features, including
integrated SAN connectivity and management services, redundant power, remote
management, and a bulk-load mailbox that can handle 2TBs at a time.
The Scalar 100 supports LTO, SDLT/DLT, or AIT technology.
