HP StorageWorks Rack-Mount Kits
The
HP StorageWorks Rack-Mount Kits provide a high density, rack-mountable tape
drive solution for both direct-attach SCSI, USB, or SAS backup and archiving
applications.
The HP StorageWorks 1U Rack-Mount Kit supports
DAT and Ultrium internal tape drives, and RDX internal removable disk drives.
The 1U rack-mount kit is available in SCSI, SAS and USB interfaces.
With two Ultrium 1760 drives, the 1U SAS
enclosure can provide a maximum compressed capacity of 3.2 TB with a data
transfer rate up to 1152 GB/hr.
The HP StorageWorks 3U Rack-Mount Kit holds up
two full-height internal tape drives, four half-height internal tape drives, or
a combination of one full-height and two half tape drives. It is available in
both SCSI and SAS interfaces. With four Ultrium 1760 SAS drives, this enclosure
solution can provide a maximum compressed capacity of 6.4 TB.
1U USB Rack-Mount Kit support for RDX 160 and 320
internal removable disk backup systems
1U and 3U SCSI Rack-Mount Kit support for
LTO-4 Ultrium 1760 SCSI internal tape drives
| |
• |
High
density: The HP Rack-Mount Kits are ideal for customers who
have limited space in their rack as it allows for a smaller
footprint leaving valuable space for other key components in the
datacenter. |
 |
• |
Scalability: The 1U rack enclosure can hold one single drive.
One additional drive can be added when needed.
The 3U rack enclosure can hold two full height drives, four
half-height drives, or one full and two half-height drives.
|
 |
• |
Ability to mix technologies: The 1U and 3U Rack-Mount Kits
allow users to mix a variety of tape technologies, including DAT,
Ultrium, DLT VS, and SDLT, as well as RDX removable disk technology. |
 |
• |
Supports standard internal tape drives: The enclosures
support standard internal drives. No extra module is needed. |
 |
• |
RoHS
compliant: The Rack-Mount Kits are all RoHS compliant (meets
2006 European legislation for removal of hazardous substances). |
 |
• |
SCSI
Interface: SCSI versions of the 1U and 3U Rack-Mount Kit
allow customers to connect SCSI tape drives to high-density servers
where rack space is a premium. |
 |
• |
SAS
Interface: SAS versions of the 1U and 3U Rack-Mount Kit allow
customers to rack-mount SAS-based tape drives providing an
alternative to internal models in racked environments. |
 |
• |
USB
interface: The 1U USB Rack-Mount Kit is an industry first for
enclosures; this solution will allow customers alternative methods
to connecting HP USB tape drives to servers, in addition to internal
and table top models. |
 |
• |
Factory Integration: Rack-Mount Kits can be factory
integrated into HP racks with ProLiant Servers. |

| The HP
StorageWorks Rack-Mount Kits provide a high-density, rack-mountable tape
drive enclosure for direct-attach SCSI, USB, and SAS backup and archiving
applications. Because these enclosures use standard internal tape drives,
they provide a cost-effective means of mounting tape drives in rack server
environments. These enclosures provide customers with scalability, allowing
the customer to add drives and migrate to new tape technologies as their
capacity and performance needs grow. HP StorageWorks Rack-Mount Kits are
supported by ProLiant, HP Integrity, and AlphaServer platforms. |
