HPE StoreEver MSL Entry-level Tape Automation QuickSpecs
Overview
HPE StoreEver MSL Entry-level Tape Automation meets demanding storage requirements of businesses needing unattended backup, disaster recovery, or archive capability. The MSL 1/8 Autoloader and MSL2024 Tape Library offer a broad choice of storage capacity and technology including LTO-9, LTO-8, LTO-7 or LTO-6 Ultrium tape drives. HPE’s web-based remote management solution Command View for Tape Libraries (CVTL) make the MSL 1/8 Autoloader and the MSL2024 Tape Library easy to manage from any remote location, eliminating the need for remote office IT staff.
Quickly and simply manage the tape media both in and out of the library with the standard bar code reader, configurable mail slots, and removable magazines. If a tape were lost or stolen, protect important business data from unauthorized access with data encryption options. MSL investment protection and uncertain data growth are easily managed within the MSL library portfolio. Quickly increase capacity and/or performance with tool-free drive upgrades in the MSL 1/8 Tape Autoloader or MSL2024 Tape Library, or move tape drive kits to the MSL3040 or MSL6480 for library scalability and additional enterprise class features.
Proactively receive detailed information about your MSL Tape Automation with HPE StoreEver TapeAssure Advanced, a licensed feature of CVTL. Information about the library, drives, and media are all monitored for utilization, operational performance, and life and health information.
