Quantum ATL M2500

The ATL M2500 provides modular scalability for companies that need a backup solution that can grow and change as their data grows and backup requirements change. With the greatest density per Rack U of any library available, the ATL M2500 packs data capacities into 23.5 inches of rack space that only a year ago required enormous square feet on the data center floor. Developed with flexibility in mind (and based on its "little brother", ATL M1500), the ATL M2500 can be "right-sized", from both a performance and capacity point of view, to fit the needs of the workgroup or remote site to the centralized, enterprise datacenter. The scalability of the ATL M-Series (both ATL M1500 and ATL M2500) is unrivaled in that the library doesn't have to be rebuilt, shipped back to the manufacturer or taken off-line in order to add modules. With no rivals in its class, the ATL M2500 will change the way you think of "big iron".
