The Sun StorageTek PowderHorn 9310 Library Storage Module (LSM), part number YSL9310-CLIP, is a powerful expansion module designed to increase the capacity of your existing tape library system. It is commonly integrated with the StorageTek PowderHorn 9310 Tape Library to offer a scalable, high-capacity data storage solution. While it does not come equipped with tape drives, the module serves as an expandable storage unit, allowing the addition of more tapes over time.
This specific module is characterised by its lack of pre-installed tape drives, making it an ideal choice for environments where it will be connected to existing or future tape drives as needed. The design allows for the easy insertion and management of large volumes of tapes. This modular approach means users can customise their data storage systems flexibly and efficiently according to individual operational needs.
The StorageTek PowderHorn 9310 is known for high-volume, long-term archival storage, and this LSM expansion module enhances its overall capacity. It supports automation for the handling of tape cartridges, contributing to greater efficiency in data management tasks. The unit is also compatible with various media types, ensuring that a range of storage formats can be utilised over time.
Further reinforcing its utility, the LSM integrates smoothly with the broader Sun StorageTek ecosystem, often found in enterprise-level environments where backup and archival data need to be maintained securely. While it lacks data processing capabilities of its own, the module serves as a critical component in a broader data preservation strategy, making it ideal for long-term archival solutions.
