The HP StorageWorks MSL6030 Ultrium 1840 is a tape library designed to provide reliable, high-capacity storage. This model uses LTO Ultrium technology, which is well-suited for environments requiring frequent backups, long-term data archiving, or dealing with growing volume demands. The unit connects via a SCSI interface, ensuring compatibility across a wide range of network configurations and legacy systems.
With the ability to support LTO Ultrium 4 drives, this library offers a total capacity of up to 48 TB (when compressed), depending on the type of cartridge in use. It accommodates up to 30 tape cartridges, providing flexibility for medium to large-scale storage needs. It features robotic mechanics for precise and automated tape handling, reducing the manual work typically required in such operations. Additionally, the model has hot-swappable drives, offering convenience for maintenance without interrupting ongoing operations.
The MSL6030 comes equipped with remote management capabilities through the HP StorageWorks Command View feature, allowing administrators to monitor performance and manage hardware remotely. Its automated functions include tape cloning and partitioning, which enhance backup efficiency by ensuring that data is stored securely across multiple tapes. The library also offers strong compatibility with major backup software platforms.
Utilising LTO Ultrium technology inside an MSL tape library ensures your data is stored reliably, with fast data transfer speeds, reaching up to 240 MB/s (with compression). The robust, compact form factor makes it an excellent fit for data-centre environments where space conservation and performance are critical.
