HP StorageWorks MSL2024 Tape Library
The HP StorageWorks MSL2024 Tape Library is the
ideal entry-level tape library that provides tape library capacity and extensive
features in the compact form of a tape autoloader. With compressed capacity
(2:1) of up to 38.4 TB using, the MSL2024 Tape Library can easily tackle backup
and recovery jobs typically handled by mid-range tape libraries. Utilizing a 2U
form factor, the MSL2024 Tape Library provides a large amount of data storage
without consuming a large amount of valuable rack space. The unique HP web-based
management feature reduces the dependencies on local IT resources, allowing
multiple sites to be supported centrally. The MSL2024 Tape Library offers
customers the choice of purchasing a library equipped with LTO Ultrium tape
drives and either a SCSI, SAS or Fibre Channel interface. Each library includes
two removable 12-slot magazines, and one user-configurable mail slot dedicated
for import/export of data cartridges. A barcode reader is part of the standard
configuration for facilitating media management.
