The Sun StorageTek L9 is a tape library system designed to meet small to medium business data storage requirements. It uses Digital Linear Tape (DLT) technology and connects via a SCSI interface, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of enterprise storage environments. The library offers reliable data backup, archiving, and retrieval, contributing to enhanced data management and security. The system is well suited for applications requiring automated backup, allowing for unattended operations thanks to its effective robotic system.
With the capability to hold up to 9 tapes, the Sun StorageTek L9 provides a substantial amount of storage for a relatively compact unit. Its autoloader offers sequential cartridge loading, which enhances its efficiency in reading and writing data quickly across multiple tapes. The system supports DLT IV tape media, offering up to 40 GB of native storage per cartridge, or up to 80 GB of compressed storage, depending on data type. Its robotic arm ensures smooth handling of tapes, which further adds to its durability under typical storage conditions.
Connection to a server or network is made through the Ultra2 SCSI interface, offering good transfer speeds and compatibility with other legacy systems. The device’s management features include remote monitoring and operation, increasing its practicality for IT professionals managing distributed systems. This allows for efficient monitoring of drive health, media, and data movement, optimising the system's functions remotely.
