Quantum M1500

 

 

 

The M1500 provides modular scalability for companies that need a backup solution that can grow and change with their data requirements.  Developed with flexibility in mind, the M1500 can be configured to fit the performance and capacity requirements of the most aggressive users.  The scalability of the M-Series (including the M1500 and M2500) is unrivaled because it does not have to taken off-line, shipped to the manufacturer, or rebuilt when new modules are added.  The M-Series libraries also boasts the greatest density per rack space in this class of tape library and leave valuable rack space for other IT infrastructure.

  • Native capacity for SDLT 600 of 6.3TB at 36MB/s native transfer rate
  • Base-library configurable from zero to two drives and up to 25 cartridge slots
  • Scalable via StackLink up to ten modules in a rack providing up to 20 drives and 250 cartridge slots by the backup software package as a single library
  • Supports SDLT 320, SDLT 600,  and LTO-1™, LTO-2™ and  LTO-3™ tape drives
  • Barcode reader standard
  • Data cartridges in removable magazines providing 100% bulk loading and unloading
  • Intuitive GUI control panel
  • SCSI standard with a native fibre library option
  • Optional remote monitoring, management and SNMP agent (MC300 option)
  • Optional redundant power supplies
  • Intermixable scalability with the M2500
  • Add, remove and replace modules in a StackLinked configuration while modules stay on-line (pass-thru independent of individual modules)
  • Driveless configuration available for "capacity-only" scalability
  • Available in stand-alone (non-rackmountable, desktop) configuration
