Quantum M2500
The M2500 provides modular scalability for
companies that need a storage solution that can grow with their backup
requirements. Considering its industry-leading density, the M2500 packs data
capacities into 23.5 inches of rack space.
Developed with flexibility in mind (and based on
the M1500), the M2500 can be sized to fit the needs of the workgroup, the remote
site, or the enterprise datacenter. The scalability of the M-Series (both M1500
and M2500) is unrivaled since the library does not have to be rebuilt, shipped
back to the manufacturer, or taken off-line in order to add modules.
